Find the vertices and foci of the hyperbola with equation quantity x plus 5 squared divided by 36 minus the quantity of y plus 1

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Vertices: (1,-1), (-11, -1); Foci: (-15, -1), (5, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Center at (-5,-1) because of the plus 5 added to the x and the plus 1 added to the y.

a(squared)=36 which means a=6 and a=distance from center to vertices so add and subtract 6 from the x coordinate since this is a horizontal hyperbola, which is (1,-1), (-11,-1). From there you dont need to find the focus since there is only one option for this;

Vertices: (1,-1), (-11, -1); Foci: (-15, -1), (5, -1)

Answer:

a = 3, b = 12, c = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable rules of exponents are ...

(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

(a^b)/(a^c) = a^(b-c)

(a^b)^c = a^(bc)

___

You seem to have ...

$\dfrac{2^5\times8^4}{16}=\dfrac{2^5\times(2^3)^4}{2^4}\qquad (a=3)\\\\=\dfrac{2^5\times2^{3\cdot4}}{2^4}=\dfrac{2^5\times2^{12}}{2^4}\qquad (b=12)\\\\=2^{5+12-4}=2^{13}\qquad(c=13)$

Additional comment

I find it easy to remember the rules of exponents by remembering that an exponent signifies repeated multiplication. It tells you how many times the base is a factor in the product.

$2\cdot2\cdot2 = 2^3\qquad\text{2 is a factor 3 times}$
