Answer:  see below

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

1) Foci is plural for Focus.  Since a hyperbola has two focus points, they are referred to as foci.  The foci is where the sum of the distances from any point on the curve to the foci is constant.

2) When determining the equation of a hyperbola you need the following:

    a)  does the hyperbola open up or to the right?

    b)  what is the center (h, k) of the hyperbola?

    c)  What is the slope of the asymptotes of the hyperbola?

3) The equation of a hyperbola is:

\dfrac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}-\dfrac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1\qquad or\qquad \dfrac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}-\dfrac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}=1

  • (h, k) is the center of the hyperbola
  • ± b/a is the slope of the line of the asymptotes
  • The equation starts with the "x" if it opens to the right and "y" if it opens up

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

There are 3 red marbles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of red marbles to blue marbles is 3:2, so for every two blue marbles there are three red marbles. This means that there are three red marbles for every four marbles in the bag. Therefore, if there are five marbles in the bag, there must be three red marbles and two blue marbles.

Mindy and Troy combined ate 9 99 pieces of the wedding cake. Mindy ate 3 33 pieces of cake and Troy had 1 4 4 1 ​ start fraction
saul85 [17]

Answer:

(a)There are 24 cakes in total

(b)There are 15 pieces of cakes left

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total cakes=x

Let number of cakes eaten by Mindy=m

Let number of cakes eaten by Troy=t

Now:

m=3

Since m+t=9

3+t=9

t=9-3=6

The Number of Pieces of Cake Left in Total=x-(t+m)

Since Troy had \frac{1}{4} of the total cake

\frac{1}{4} of x=6

\frac{1}{4} X x=6

x=6X4=24

(a)There are 24 cakes in total

(b)The Number of Pieces of Cake Left in Total=x-(t+m)=24-9=15 cakes
