Answer:

\frac{x^2}{12}-\frac{y^2}{4}=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since our foci are located on the x-axis, then our major axis is going to be the horizontal transverse axis of the hyperbola:

<u>Formula for hyperbola with horizontal transverse axis centered at origin</u>

  • <u />\frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1
  • Directrices -> x=\pm\frac{a^2}{c}
  • Foci -> (\pm c,0) where a^2+b^2=c^2
  • a>b

Since we are given our directrices of x=\pm3 and foci of (\pm4,0), then we can set up the directrices equation to solve for a^2:

x=\pm\frac{a^2}{c}\\ \\\pm3=\pm\frac{a^2}{4}\\ \\12=a^2

Now we can determine b^2 to complete our equation for the hyperbola:

a^2+b^2=c^2\\\\12+b^2=4^2\\\\12+b^2=16\\\\b^2=4

Therefore, our equation for our hyperbola is \frac{x^2}{12}-\frac{y^2}{4}=1

5.<br>Find the sum of all two - digit natural numbers which are divisible by 3.​
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

1665

Step-by-step explanation:

This is AP, where:

  • First term is: 12= 3*4
  • Last term is: 99= 3*33
  • Common difference is: 3
  • Number of terms is: 33- 3= 30 (because the 4th term is included)
  • S=1/2*30(12+99)= 1665

The sum of all two - digit natural numbers which are divisible by 3 is 1665
