SOLUTION
From the question, the center of the hyperbola is

a is the distance between the center to vertex, which is -1 or 1, and
c is the distance between the center to foci, which is -2 or 2.
b is given as
![\begin{gathered} b^2=c^2-a^2 \\ b^2=2^2-1^2 \\ b=\sqrt[]{3} \end{gathered}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bgathered%7D%20b%5E2%3Dc%5E2-a%5E2%20%5C%5C%20b%5E2%3D2%5E2-1%5E2%20%5C%5C%20b%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B3%7D%20%5Cend%7Bgathered%7D)
But equation of a hyperbola is given as

Substituting the values of a, b, h and k, we have
![\begin{gathered} \frac{(x-0)^2}{1^2}-\frac{(y-0)^2}{\sqrt[]{3}^2}=1 \\ \frac{x^2}{1}-\frac{y^2}{3}=1 \end{gathered}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bgathered%7D%20%5Cfrac%7B%28x-0%29%5E2%7D%7B1%5E2%7D-%5Cfrac%7B%28y-0%29%5E2%7D%7B%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B3%7D%5E2%7D%3D1%20%5C%5C%20%5Cfrac%7Bx%5E2%7D%7B1%7D-%5Cfrac%7By%5E2%7D%7B3%7D%3D1%20%5Cend%7Bgathered%7D)
Hence the answer is

now the intersection is:

It will take the seal 6.5 hours to swim 52 miles.
(a) Without solving the equation we can't determine whether its true or false.
(b) If x = 3
4x + 1 = 2x + 5
4(3) + 1 = 2(3) + 5
12 + 1 = 15 + 5
13 = 20
No, if x = 3, the equation will not be true.
(c) 4x + 1 = 2x + 5
4x - 2x = 5 - 1
2x = 4
x = 4/2
x = 2
This shows that x = 2 makes the equation true.
