Check the picture below.

so, the hyperbola looks like so, clearly a = 6 from the traverse axis, and the "c" distance from the center to a focus has to be from -3±c, as aforementioned above, the tell-tale is that part, therefore, we can see that c = 2√(10).

because the hyperbola opens vertically, the fraction with the positive sign will be the one with the "y" in it, like you see it in the picture, so without further adieu,

\bf \textit{hyperbolas, vertical traverse axis }
\\\\
\cfrac{(y- k)^2}{ a^2}-\cfrac{(x- h)^2}{ b^2}=1
\qquad 
\begin{cases}
center\ ( h, k)\\
vertices\ ( h,  k\pm a)\\
c=\textit{distance from}\\
\qquad \textit{center to foci}\\
\qquad \sqrt{ a ^2 + b ^2}\\
asymptotes\quad  y= k\pm \cfrac{a}{b}(x- h)
\end{cases}\\\\
-------------------------------

\bf \begin{cases}
h=2\\
k=-3\\
a=6\\
c=2\sqrt{10}
\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{[y- (-3)]^2}{ 6^2}-\cfrac{(x- 2)^2}{ b^2}=1
\\\\\\
\cfrac{(y+3)^2}{ 36}-\cfrac{(x- 2)^2}{ b^2}=1
\\\\\\
c^2=a^2+b^2\implies (2\sqrt{10})^2=6^2+b^2\implies 2^2(\sqrt{10})^2=36+b^2
\\\\\\
4(10)=36+b^2\implies 40=36+b^2\implies 4=b^2
\\\\\\
\sqrt{4}=b\implies 2=b\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{(y+3)^2}{ 36}-\cfrac{(x- 2)^2}{ 2^2}=1\implies \cfrac{(y+3)^2}{ 36}-\cfrac{(x- 2)^2}{ 4}=1

Deffense [45]

Answer:

9.73  cm to 2 DP

Step-by-step explanation:

Total of the  lengths involved = 7*9.4 +  5*10.2

= 116.8 cm

So the mean of the 12 fingers

= 116.8/12

= 9.73  cm to 2 DP.
