The general equation of a hyperbola with a horizontal transverse axis is defined as:
x²/a² - y²/b² = 1
Solving for b², we use the formula: a² + b² = c²
b² = 12² - 9² = 63
Equation of our hyperbola will be:
x²/81 - y²/63 = 1
Answer:
We are 98% confident interval for the mean caffeine content for cups dispensed by the machine between 107.66 and 112.34 mg .
Step-by-step explanation:
Given -
The sample size is large then we can use central limit theorem
n = 50 ,
Standard deviation
= 7.1
Mean 
= 110
1 - confidence interval = 1 - .98 = .02
= 2.33
98% confidence interval for the mean caffeine content for cups dispensed by the machine = 
= 
= 
First we take + sign
= 112.34
now we take - sign
= 107.66
We are 98% confident interval for the mean caffeine content for cups dispensed by the machine between 107.66 and 112.34 .

Considering that the grows at a constant rate we can form an equation where x = how many years after it was planted
and y = its height
Now we just need to find how many feet it grows each year. To do that we just need to compare its height from a certain age to another:
6 years after it was planted : 7 feet,
so x=6 and y = 7
9 years after it was planted: 16 feet
so x= 9 y=16
With thay we can conclude that in 3 years , the tree grew 9 feet. To discover how much the tree grow each year we just nee to divide 9 feet by 3 years which is 3 feet every year.
To write the equatopn now we just need to find the y-intercept which we can discover by setting x to 0:
If in 6 years after the tree was planted it is 7 feet long , we can discover how long it was when it was planted by subtracting 6 years of growth (The slope ) which is 3
7 - 6(years)×3(feet the tree grow each year)
7 - 18 = -11
The tree was -11 feet long when it was planted
which is our y-intercept
( I know it doesnt make sense , but if you apply to a graph it will make more sense )
Now we can make the equation
y = 3x -11
