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.

lilavasa [31]

Answer: if there had been no current, the rate would have been 4 km/hr.

The rate of the current is 1.5km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the speed of the boat in still water.

Let y represent the speed of the current.

Impeded by the current the outing club took 4 hours and 24 minutes(4 + 24/60 = 4.4 hours) to paddle 11 km up the exeter river to their campsite last weekend. This means that the total speed with which they travelled is (x - y) km/h

Distance = speed × time. Therefore

11 = 4.4(x - y)

Dividing through by 4.4, it becomes

2.5 = x - y - - - - - - - - - - -1

The next day the same current was with them and it took only 2 hours to make the return trip to campus. This means that the total speed with which they travelled is (x + y) km/h. The distance travelled is

11 = 2(x + y)

Dividing through by 2, it becomes

5.5 = x + y - - - - - - - - - - -2

Adding equation 1 to equation 2, it becomes

8 = 2x

x = 8/2 = 4

Substituting x = 4 into equation 1, it becomes

2.5 = 4 - y

y = 4 - 2.5

y = 1.5

Please tell me answer not by directly step by step please don't write answer only please please please
irinina [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

y=2x=,z=3x,r=4x

Now,

x+y+z+r=360°(complete turn)

x+2x+3x+4x=360°(given)

10x=360°

x=360°/10

x=36°

Hence,

x=36°

y=2x=2×36°=72°

z=3x=3×36°=108°

r=4x=4×36°=144°

Inferential statistics allow you to decide whether a difference between the experimental and the control group is due to:_______
den301095 [7]

Answer:

Option (A)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 main branches of statistics. They are:

1. Descriptive Statistics

2. Inferential Statistics

Descriptive statistics describes the characteristics of observed subjects or items while Inferential statistics makes inferences, based on given or derived data.

Inferential Statistics allow you to decide whether a difference between the experimental group and control group is due to <u>manipulation or chance.</u>

<u />

The Experimental group is the group that an effect is tested on while the Control group is the group that is left untested or uninfluenced. Inferential statistics allow you to decide whether a difference between these 2 groups is due to

- manipulation or interference by any force (which may be the experimenter/researcher)

or

- probability which is chance.
