Given :

The foci of hyperbola are (8,0) and (-8,0) .

The difference of the focal radii = 6.

To Find :

The equation of the hyperbola.

Solution :

We know, distance between foci is given by :

2c = 8 - (-8)

c = 8

Also, difference between the foci or focal distance is given by :

2a = 6

a = 3

Now, we know for hyperbola :

b^2 +a^2 = c^2\\\\b^2={c^2-a^2}\\\\b^2 = 64-9\\\\b^2 = 55

General equation of hyperbola is :

\dfrac{x^2}{a^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{b^2}=1\\\\\dfrac{x^2}{9}+ \dfrac{y^2}{55}=1

Hence, this is the required solution.

How to solve for -3x squared + 2y squared + 5xy - 2y + 5x squared - 3y squared when x = 0.5 and y = -1/10??
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

0.44

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x^2 + 2y^2 + 5xy - 2y +5x^2 - 3y^2

Combine like terms

-3x^2 + 5x^2 = 2x^2 2y^2 - 3y^2 = -1y^2

2x^2 - 1y^2 + 5xy - 2y

Now plug in the solutions Note: it is easier if you have all decimals or all fractions (-1/10=-.1

2(0.5)^2 - 1(-0.1)^2 + 5(0.5)(-0.1) - 2(-0.1)

Simplify:

0.5 - 0.01 - 0.25 + 0.2

0.5 + 0.2 - 0.01 - 0.25

0.7 - 0.26

0.44

adult tickets to a play cost $22. tickets for children cost $15. tickets for a group of 11 people cost a total of $228. write an
Tom [10]

Adults = 9

Children = 2


Let x be the number of adults.

11-x is the number of children.


22x + 15(11-x) = 228

22x + 165 - 15x = 228

22x - 15x = 228 - 165

7x = 63

7x / 7 = 63 / 7

x = 9  number of adults.


11 - x = 11 - 9 = 2 number of children.


To check:


22x + 15(11-x) = 228

22(9) + 15(11-9) = 228

198 + 30 = 228

228 = 228
