There are no easy four steps in solving an equation. In fact it involves a lot of assessment and knowledge from the past and the current in order to make a solution for the problem. It is like solving a puzzle which may or may not contain what you already know. Here are a summarized four steps in solving an equation.

1) Clear out any fractions in the equation by multiplying each term by the highest common denominator to simplify the equation. Add or subtract other values to make it even more simplified.
2) If there is a common divisor in the equation, divide each term by the value to simplify it more.
3) Combine like terms by either cancelling or transposing terms. Factor out anything that can be factored (as long as it is simplified, the better)
4) Recognize a pattern and use different techniques, whether algebraic or trigonometric or other functions like squaring both sides. 

You'll be able to find more ways along the journey so I hope this helped you get started!

4. Find the standard from of the equation of a hyperbola whose foci are (-1,2), (5,2) and its vertices are end points of the dia
Ad libitum [116K]

The <em>standard</em> form of the equation of the hyperbola that satisfies all conditions is (x - 2)²/4 - (y - 2)²/5 = 1 .

<h3>How to find the standard equation of a hyperbola</h3>

In this problem we must determine the equation of the hyperbola in its <em>standard</em> form from the coordinates of the foci and a <em>general</em> equation of a circle. Based on the location of the foci, we see that the axis of symmetry of the hyperbola is parallel to the x-axis. Besides, the center of the hyperbola is the midpoint of the line segment with the foci as endpoints:

(h, k) = 0.5 · (- 1, 2) + 0.5 · (5, 2)

(h, k) = (2, 2)

To determine whether it is possible that the vertices are endpoints of the diameter of the circle, we proceed to modify the <em>general</em> equation of the circle into its <em>standard</em> form.

If the vertices of the hyperbola are endpoints of the diameter of the circle, then the center of the circle must be the midpoint of the line segment. By algebra we find that:

x² + y² - 4 · x - 4 · y + 4= 0​

(x² - 4 · x + 4) + (y² - 4 · y + 4) = 4

(x - 2)² + (y - 2)² = 2²

The center of the circle is the midpoint of the line segment. Now we proceed to determine the vertices of the hyperbola:

V₁(x, y) = (0, 2), V₂(x, y) = (4, 2)

And the distance from the center to any of the vertices is 2 (<em>semi-major</em> distance, a) and the semi-minor distance is:

b = √(c² - a²)

b = √(3² - 2²)

b = √5

Therefore, the <em>standard</em> form of the equation of the hyperbola that satisfies all conditions is (x - 2)²/4 - (y - 2)²/5 = 1 .
