Answer:

L = 12

W = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

W = 2L

A = L * W

A = 72

72 = L * 2L

72 = 3L

24 = L (you have to divide by 2)

L = 12

W = 6

The given figure shows a vertical hyperbola with its centre at origin, and as we observe the figure, we can conclude that :

Length of transverse axis is :

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: 2b = 12$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: b = 6$

length of conjugate axis is :

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: 2a = 8$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: a = 4$

Equation of hyperbola ~

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: \cfrac{ {y}^{2} }{ {b}^{2} } - \cfrac{ {x}^{2} }{ {a}^{2} } = 1$

plug in the values ~

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: \cfrac{ {y}^{2} }{ {6}^{2} } - \cfrac{ {x}^{2} }{ {4}^{2} } = 1$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: \cfrac{ {y}^{2} }{ {36}^{} } - \cfrac{ {x}^{2} }{ {16}^{} } = 1$

Solve the system of linear equations below 2x-y=0 3x-2y=-3

Lynna [10]

2x - y = 0
2x = y

3x - 2(2x) = -3
3x - 4x = -3
-x = -3
x = 3

2(3) = y
6 = y
