The distance could be calculated as follows:
d =

d =

d =
There is no picture here. Do you have a picture i can use to better understand the question?
The answer is the first one:
bc its not growing by a (-)1/2 and the 3rd one just doesnt make sense
The values of a and b are 1/4 and 1/5 respectively
<h3>How to determine the true statement?</h3>
The function is given as:
16x^2 - 25y^2 = 1
The above function is a horizontal hyperbola.
A horizontal hyperbola that passes through the origin is represented as:

Rewrite 16x^2 - 25y^2 = 1 as

By comparison, we have:


Solve for a and b


Hence, the values of a and b are 1/4 and 1/5 respectively
