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

PSEG Long Island charges its residential customers a little monthly service charge plus an energy charge based on the amount of
german

Using linear function concepts, it is found that:

  • a) It costs $0.1 for each kilowatt hour of electricity used in excess of 250 kWh.
  • b) f(90) = 46.6, which is the cost of 340 kWh of consumption in a month.

------------------------------

A <em>linear function </em>has the format given by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.

The equation for the cost of h kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity used in excess of 250 kWh is of:

C = f(h) = 37.6 + 0.1h

Item a:

  • The slope is of m = 0.1, which means that it costs $0.1 for each kilowatt hour of electricity used in excess of 250 kWh.

Item b:

f(90) = 37.6 + 0.1(90) = 37.6 + 9 = 46.6

250 + 90 = 340.

f(90) = 46.6, which is the cost of 340 kWh of consumption in a month.

A circle has a sector with area 45/4 pi and central angle of 9/10 pi radians. What is the area of the circle?
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

the area of the circle: 25π

Step-by-step explanation:

45/4 π = 11.25π

9/10π = 0.9π

11.25π / 0.9π = x / 2π   .... 360° = 2π

x = (11.25π x 2π) / 0.9π = 25π
