Answer:

x = 4, hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3 = 4x - 5

-2x -2x

3 = 2x -5

+5 +5

8 = 2x

divide by 2 on both sides

4 = x

switch where the x and 4 is, because teachers seem to like that

x = 4

Write an equation in standard form of the hyperbola described.

marishachu [46]

Check the picture below, so the hyperbola looks more or less like so, so let's find the length of the conjugate axis, or namely let's find the "b" component.

$\textit{hyperbolas, horizontal traverse axis } \\\\ \cfrac{(x- h)^2}{ a^2}-\cfrac{(y- k)^2}{ b^2}=1 \qquad \begin{cases} center\ ( h, k)\\ vertices\ ( h\pm a, k)\\ c=\textit{distance from}\\ \qquad \textit{center to foci}\\ \qquad \sqrt{ a ^2 + b ^2} \end{cases} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill$

$\begin{cases} h=0\\ k=0\\ a=2\\ c=4 \end{cases}\implies \cfrac{(x-0)^2}{2^2}-\cfrac{(y-0)^2}{b^2} \\\\\\ c^2=a^2+b^2\implies 4^2=2^2+b^2\implies 16=4+b^2\implies \underline{12=b^2} \\\\\\ \cfrac{(x-0)^2}{2^2}-\cfrac{(y-0)^2}{12}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{x^2}{4}-\cfrac{y^2}{12}}$
