Solve the system of equations at the right algebraically by the method of substitution. Then verify your results by using a graphing utility. System for 9 x+ y 5 0
Solution
6) Solution :
The transverse axis is parallel to the y-axis (the positive part of this equation.
(h, k) is the center ... (0, 0)
a = distance from the center to the vertices along the transverse axis
b = distance from the center to the endpoints of the conjugate axis
c = distance from the center to the foci along the transverse axis
Given: a = 3
The relationship between a, b, and c is
3² + b² = c²
The slope of the asymptotes is ±3/2
a = is a multiple of 3
b = is a multiple of 2 ... be careful not to always assume that a=3 and b = 2.
For this problem a = 3
hence, b = 4
3² + 4² = c²
25 = c²
c = 5
Summary
center = (0, 0)
a² = 9
b² = 16
c² = 25
transverse axis x = 0
equation of the hyperbola
[y²/3²] - [x²/4²] = 1
