I’m pretty sure the answer is C
1. A rational number is a number that can be written as a fraction.
For example: 1/3, 5/7, 90/666, etc
Note: Any integer can be written as a fraction.
Look:
5 = 5/1 = rational
-14 = -14/1 = rational
2. There is no difference between a rational and integer.
Given:
Hyperbola
a=55,000 km and c=81,000 km
hyperbola is the origin and the
transverse axis is horizontal
Required:
Equation of the path of a
satellite
Solution:
Formula for hyperbola, (x-h)2/a2
– (x-k)2/b2 = 1
At origin, (h, k) = (0, 0)
(x-0)2/(55000)2 – (x-0)2/(81000)2
= 1
