Answer:

(x - 1)²/4² - (y - 2)²/2² = 1 ⇒ The bold labels are the choices

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve this problem

- The equation of the hyperbola is x² - 4y² - 2x + 16y - 31 = 0

- The standard form of the equation of hyperbola is

(x - h)²/a² - (y - k)²/b² = 1 where a > b

- So lets collect x in a bracket and make it a completing square and

also collect y in a bracket and make it a completing square

∵ x² - 4y² - 2x + 16y - 31 = 0

∴ (x² - 2x) + (-4y² + 16y) - 31 = 0

- Take from the second bracket -4 as a common factor

∴ (x² - 2x) + -4(y² - 4y) - 31 = 0

∴ (x² - 2x) - 4(y² - 4y) - 31 = 0

- Lets make (x² - 2x) completing square

∵ √x² = x

∴ The 1st term in the bracket is x

∵ 2x ÷ 2 = x

∴ The product of the 1st term and the 2nd term is x

∵ The 1st term is x

∴ the second term = x ÷ x = 1

∴ The bracket is (x - 1)²

∵ (x - 1)² = (x² - 2x + 1)

∴ To complete the square add 1 to the bracket and subtract 1 out

the bracket to keep the equation as it

∴ (x² - 2x + 1) - 1

- We will do the same withe bracket of y

- Lets make 4(y² - 4y) completing square

∵ √y² = y

∴ The 1st term in the bracket is x

∵ 4y ÷ 2 = 2y

∴ The product of the 1st term and the 2nd term is 2y

∵ The 1st term is y

∴ the second term = 2y ÷ y = 2

∴ The bracket is 4(y - 2)²

∵ 4(y - 2)² = 4(y² - 4y + 4)

∴ To complete the square add 4 to the bracket and subtract 4 out

the bracket to keep the equation as it

∴ 4[y² - 4y + 4) - 4]

- Lets put the equation after making the completing square

∴ (x - 1)² - 1 - 4[(y - 2)² - 4] - 31 = 0 ⇒ simplify

∴ (x - 1)² - 1 - 4(y - 2)² + 16 - 31 = 0 ⇒ add the numerical terms

∴ (x - 1)² - 4(y - 2)² - 16 = 0 ⇒ add 14 to both sides

∴ (x - 1)² - 4(y - 2)² = 16 ⇒ divide both sides by 16

∴ (x - 1)²/16 - (y - 2)²/4 = 1

∵ 16 = (4)² and 4 = (2)²

∴ The standard form of the equation of the hyperbola is

(x - 1)²/4² - (y - 2)²/2² = 1

Terry and Callie do word processing. For a certain prospectus Callie can prepare it two hours faster than Terry can. If they wor

Dahasolnce [82]

Time taken by jerry alone is 10.1 hours

Time taken by callie alone is 8.1 hours

Solution:

Given:- For a certain prospectus Callie can prepare it two hours faster than Terry can

Let the time taken by Terry be "a" hours

So, the time taken by Callie will be (a-2) hours

Hence, the efficiency of Callie and Terry per hour is $\frac{1}{a-2} \text { and } \frac{1}{a} \text { respectively }$

If they work together they can do the entire prospectus in five hours

$\text {So, } \frac{1}{a-2}+\frac{1}{a}=\frac{1}{5}$

On cross-multiplication we get,

$\frac{a+(a-2)}{(a-2) \times a}=\frac{1}{5}$

$\frac{2 a-2}{(a-2) \times a}=\frac{1}{5}$

On cross multiplication ,we get

$\begin{array}{l}{5 \times(2 a-2)=a \times(a-2)} \\\\ {10 a-10=a^{2}-2 a} \\\\ {a^{2}-2 a-10 a+10=0} \\\\ {a^{2}-12 a+10=0}\end{array}$

using quadratic formula:-

$x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}$

$x=\frac{12 \pm \sqrt{144-40}}{2}$

$\begin{array}{l}{x=\frac{12 \pm \sqrt{144-40}}{2}} \\\\ {x=\frac{12 \pm \sqrt{104}}{2}} \\\\ {x=\frac{12 \pm 2 \sqrt{26}}{2}} \\\\ {x=6 \pm \sqrt{26}=6 \pm 5.1} \\\\ {x=10.1 \text { or } x=0.9}\end{array}$

If we take a = 0.9, then while calculating time taken by callie = a - 2 we will end up in negative value

Let us take a = 10.1

So time taken by jerry alone = a = 10.1 hours

Time taken by callie alone = a - 2 = 10.1 - 2 = 8.1 hours

FACTS TO KNOW BEFORE SOLVING :-

$a^x \times a^y = a^{x+y}$

In an equation , if the bases are same in both L.H.S. & R.H.S. then , the power of the bases on both the sides of equation should be equal. For e.g. : $a^x = a^y$ ⇒ $x = y$ [∵ Bases are equal on both the sides]
