A system for tracking ships indicated that a ship lies on a hyperbolic path described by 5x2 - y2 = 20. the process is repeated

and the ship is found to lie on a hyperbolic path described by y2 - 2x2 = 7. if it is known that the ship is located in the first quadrant of the coordinate system, determine its exact location.

Answer:
The ship is located at (3,5)

Explanation:
In the first test, the equation of the position was:
5x² - y² = 20 ...........> equation I
In the second test, the equation of the position was:
y² - 2x² = 7 ..............> equation II
This equation can be rewritten as:
y² = 2x² + 7 ............> equation III

Since the ship did not move in the duration between the two tests, therefore, the position of the ship is the same in the two tests which means that:
equation I = equation II

To get the position of the ship, we will simply need to solve equation I and equation II simultaneously and get their solution.

Substitute with equation III in equation I to solve for x as follows:
5x²-y² = 20
5x² - (2x²+7) = 20
5x² - 2y² - 7 = 20
3x² = 27
x² = 9
x = <span>± </span>√9

We are given that the ship lies in the first quadrant. This means that both its x and y coordinates are positive. This means that:
x = √9 = 3

Substitute with x in equation III to get y as follows:
y² = 2x² + 7
y² = 2(3)² + 7
y = 18 + 7
y = 25
y = +√25
y = 5

Based on the above, the position of the ship is (3,5).

Hope this helps :)

What is negative 1 equals 5+x/6?
Annette [7]

Hello there,

The equation that is give to us is as follows:

  • -1 = 5 + \frac{x}{6}

In order to solve for x we would first subtract 5 from both sides and then multiply by 6:

  • -1 -5 = -6 ÷ 6 = -1

This means that x would equal to -1 given the equation above.

Hope I helped,

Amna

How does the graph of g(x) = (x − 1)3 + 5 compare to the parent function f(x) = x3?
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

The original function was transformed by a a horizontal shift to the right in 1 unit, and also a vertical shift upwards of 5 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the four very important rules regarding translations (shifts) of the graph of functions:

1) In order to shift the graph of a function vertically c units upwards, we must transform  f (x) by adding c to it.

2) In order to shift the graph of a function vertically c units downwards, we must transform  f (x) by subtracting c from it.

3) In order to shift the graph of a function horizontally c units to the right, we must transform the variable x by subtracting c from x.

4) In order to shift the graph of a function horizontally c units to the left, we must transform the variable x by adding c to x.

We notice that in our case, The original function f(x)=x^3 has been transformed by "subtracting 1 unit from x", and by adding 5 units to the full function. Therefore we are in the presence of a horizontal shift to the right in 1 unit (as explained in rule 3), and also a vertical shift upwards of 5 units (as explained in rule 1).
