If you plot the points given on a coordinate plane you see that this is a hyperbola that is is horizontal in nature, meaning it opens side to side, not up and down. We can determine the center of it by taking the point equidistant from the vertices, which is (4, 5), the h and k of our center, respectively. Also, the equation looks like this when it is horizontal: 
. a is the distance between the center and the vertices, so our a = 2, and c is the distance between the center and the foci, so our c = 3. We need to find b now, using Pythagorean's theorem. 
and 
. Now we have everything we need to rewrite the equation: 
Answer:
28.6, that is, about 29 are expected to be defective
Step-by-step explanation:
For each battery, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of a battery being defective is independent of other betteries. So the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.
The expected value of the binomial distribution is:
The probability that a battery is defective is 1/14.
This means that
400 batteries.
This means that
How many are expected to be defective?
28.6, that is, about 29 are expected to be defective
