mafiozo [28]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

[three sixths] are the same amount as [one half]

Step-by-step explanation:

Call these units thirds. Split these units in half so there are twice as many. Call these units sixths because six of them make one.

Match the hyperbolas represented by the equations to their foci.
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

1) (1 , -22) and (1 , 12) ⇔ (y + 5)²/15² - (x - 1)²/8² = 1

2) (-7 , 5) and (3 , 5) ⇔ (x + 2)²/3² - (y - 5)²/4² = 1

3) (-6 , -2) and (14 , -2) ⇔ (x - 4)²/8² - (y + 2)²/6² = 1

4) (-7 , -10) and (-7 , 16) ⇔ (y - 3)²/5² - (x + 7)²/12² = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets study the equation of the hyperbola

- The standard form of the equation of a hyperbola with

  center (h , k) and transverse axis parallel to the x-axis is

  (x - h)²/a² - (y - k)²/b² = 1

- the coordinates of the foci are (h ± c , k), where c² = a² + b²

- The standard form of the equation of a hyperbola with

  center (h , k) and transverse axis parallel to the y-axis is

  (y - k)²/a² - (x - h)²/b² = 1

- the coordinates of the foci are (h , k ± c), where c² = a² + b²

* Lets look to the problem

1) The foci are (1 , -22) and (1 , 12)

- Compare the point with the previous rules

∵ h = 1 and k ± c = -22 ,12

∴ The form of the equation will be (y - k)²/a² - (x - h)²/b² = 1

∵ k + c = -22 ⇒ (1)

∵ k - c = 12 ⇒ (2)

* Add (1) and(2)

∴ 2k = -10 ⇒ ÷2

∴ k = -5

* substitute the value of k in (1)

∴ -5 + c = -22 ⇒ add 5 to both sides

∴ c = -17

∴ c² = (-17)² = 289

∵ c² = a² + b²

∴ a² + b² = 289

* Now lets check which answer has (h , k) = (1 , -5)

  and a² + b² = 289 in the form (y - k)²/a² - (x - h)²/b² = 1

∵ 15² + 8² = 289

∵ (h , k) = (1 , -5)

∴ The answer is (y + 5)²/15² - (x - 1)²/8² = 1

* (1 , -22) and (1 , 12) ⇔ (y + 5)²/15² - (x - 1)²/8² = 1

2) The foci are (-7 , 5) and (3 , 5)

- Compare the point with the previous rules

∵ k = 5 and h ± c = -7 ,3

∴ The form of the equation will be (x - h)²/a² - (y - k)²/b² = 1

∵ h + c = -7 ⇒ (1)

∵ h - c = 3 ⇒ (2)

* Add (1) and(2)

∴ 2h = -4 ⇒ ÷2

∴ h = -2

* substitute the value of h in (1)

∴ -2 + c = -7 ⇒ add 2 to both sides

∴ c = -5

∴ c² = (-5)² = 25

∵ c² = a² + b²

∴ a² + b² = 25

* Now lets check which answer has (h , k) = (-2 , 5)

  and a² + b² = 25 in the form (x - h)²/a² - (y - k)²/b² = 1

∵ 3² + 4² = 25

∵ (h , k) = (-2 , 5)

∴ The answer is (x + 2)²/3² - (y - 5)²/4² = 1

* (-7 , 5) and (3 , 5) ⇔ (x + 2)²/3² - (y - 5)²/4² = 1

3) The foci are (-6 , -2) and (14 , -2)

- Compare the point with the previous rules

∵ k = -2 and h ± c = -6 ,14

∴ The form of the equation will be (x - h)²/a² - (y - k)²/b² = 1

∵ h + c = -6 ⇒ (1)

∵ h - c = 14 ⇒ (2)

* Add (1) and(2)

∴ 2h = 8 ⇒ ÷2

∴ h = 4

* substitute the value of h in (1)

∴ 4 + c = -6 ⇒ subtract 4 from both sides

∴ c = -10

∴ c² = (-10)² = 100

∵ c² = a² + b²

∴ a² + b² = 100

* Now lets check which answer has (h , k) = (4 , -2)

  and a² + b² = 100 in the form (x - h)²/a² - (y - k)²/b² = 1

∵ 8² + 6² = 100

∵ (h , k) = (4 , -2)

∴ The answer is (x - 4)²/8² - (y + 2)²/6² = 1

* (-6 , -2) and (14 , -2) ⇔ (x - 4)²/8² - (y + 2)²/6² = 1

4) The foci are (-7 , -10) and (-7 , 16)

- Compare the point with the previous rules

∵ h = -7 and k ± c = -10 , 16

∴ The form of the equation will be (y - k)²/a² - (x - h)²/b² = 1

∵ k + c = -10 ⇒ (1)

∵ k - c = 16 ⇒ (2)

* Add (1) and(2)

∴ 2k = 6 ⇒ ÷2

∴ k = 3

* substitute the value of k in (1)

∴ 3 + c = -10 ⇒ subtract 3 from both sides

∴ c = -13

∴ c² = (-13)² = 169

∵ c² = a² + b²

∴ a² + b² = 169

* Now lets check which answer has (h , k) = (-7 , 3)

  and a² + b² = 169 in the form (y - k)²/a² - (x - h)²/b² = 1

∵ 5² + 12² = 169

∵ (h , k) = (-7 , 3)

∴ The answer is (y - 3)²/5² - (x + 7)²/12² = 1

* (-7 , -10) and (-7 , 16) ⇔ (y - 3)²/5² - (x + 7)²/12² = 1
