Answer: 24
A hyperbola is the locus of a point in a plane which moves in the plane in such a way that the ratio of its distance from a fixed point in the same plane to its distance from a fixed line is always constant, which is always greater than unity.
the fixed point is called the focus and the fixed line is directrix and the ratio is the eccentricity.
The general equation for the vertical hyperbola is
[ (y-k)^2 / a^2 ] – [ (x-h)^2 / b^2 ] = 1
The conjugate axis of the vertical hyperbola is y = k
Length of the conjugate axis = 2b
According to the question k = 2, h = -1, a = 4, b = 12
Length of the conjugate axis = 2b = 2 * 12 = 24

First we'll do two basic steps. Step 1 is to subtract 18 from both sides. After that, divide both sides by 2 to get x^2 all by itself. Let's do those two steps now
2x^2+18 = 10
2x^2+18-18 = 10-18 <<--- step 1
2x^2 = -8
(2x^2)/2 = -8/2 <<--- step 2
x^2 = -4
At this point, it should be fairly clear there are no solutions. How can we tell? By remembering that x^2 is never negative as long as x is real.
Using the rule that negative times negative is a positive value, it is impossible to square a real numbered value and get a negative result.
For example
2^2 = 2*2 = 4
8^2 = 8*8 = 64
(-10)^2 = (-10)*(-10) = 100
(-14)^2 = (-14)*(-14) = 196
No matter what value we pick, the result is positive. The only exception is that 0^2 = 0 is neither positive nor negative.
So x^2 = -4 has no real solutions. Taking the square root of both sides leads to
x^2 = -4
sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(-4)
|x| = sqrt(4)*sqrt(-1)
|x| = 2*i
x = 2i or x = -2i
which are complex non-real values
