the eccentricity of a hyperbola is defined as e=c/a. find an equation with vertices (1,-3) and (-3,-3) and e=5/2
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

\frac{(x + 1 )^{2} }{4} - \frac{(y + 3 )^{2} }{21} = 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

If (α, β) are the coordinates of the center of the hyperbola, then its equation of the hyperbola is \frac{(x - \alpha )^{2} }{a^{2} } - \frac{(y - \beta )^{2} }{b^{2} } = 1.

Now, the vertices of the hyperbola are given by (α ± a, β) ≡ (1,-3) and (-3,-3)

Hence, β = - 3 and α + a = 1 and α - a = -3

Now, solving those two equations of α and a we get,  

2α = - 2, ⇒ α = -1 and

a = 1 - α = 2.

Now, eccentricity of the hyperbola is given by b^{2} = a^{2}(e^{2}  - 1) = 4[(\frac{5}{2} )^{2} -1] = 21 {Since e = \frac{5}{2} given}

Therefore, the equation of the given hyperbola will be  

\frac{(x + 1 )^{2} }{4} - \frac{(y + 3 )^{2} }{21} = 1. (Answer)

Answer:

x=-\frac{-20+\sqrt{-20w+3600}}{10},\:x=-\frac{-20-\sqrt{-20w+3600}}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

w=-5\left(x-8\right)\left(x+4\right)\\\mathrm{Expand\:}-5\left(x-8\right)\left(x+4\right):\quad -5x^2+20x+160\\w=-5x^2+20x+160\\Switch\:sides\\-5x^2+20x+160=w\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}w\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\-5x^2+20x+160-w=w-w\\Simplify\\-5x^2+20x+160-w=0\\Solve\:with\:the\:quadratic\:formula\\\mathrm{Quadratic\:Equation\:Formula:}\\\mathrm{For\:a\:quadratic\:equation\:of\:the\:form\:}ax^2+bx+c=0\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}\\x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

\mathrm{For\:}\quad a=-5,\:b=20,\:c=160-w:\quad x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-20\pm \sqrt{20^2-4\left(-5\right)\left(160-w\right)}}{2\left(-5\right)}\\x=\frac{-20+\sqrt{20^2-4\left(-5\right)\left(160-w\right)}}{2\left(-5\right)}:\quad -\frac{-20+\sqrt{-20w+3600}}{10}\\x=\frac{-20-\sqrt{20^2-4\left(-5\right)\left(160-w\right)}}{2\left(-5\right)}:\quad -\frac{-20-\sqrt{-20w+3600}}{10}\\The\:solutions\:to\:the\:quadratic\:equation\:are\\x=-\frac{-20+\sqrt{-20w+3600}}{10},\:x=-\frac{-20-\sqrt{-20w+3600}}{10}

Difference between compounded annually, monthly and daily.
zvonat [6]

Answer:

With monthly compounding, the bank will calculate interest on your account just once per month. It will not update your balance on a daily basis when it calculates how much interest it owes you. Assuming that the APR is the same, accounts with monthly compounding offer a lower APY than accounts with daily compounding.
