Hi toxicsugar, check the following link first, and if you have any question, just aks. We will help you. It is difficult to teach through openstudy.

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

yeah thanks but i do have a quetion

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

(x-4)^2/9-(y+2)^2/16=1 give the exact coordinates of any four points on the hyperbola. and show me how you get this

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

can u help me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You just give x an arbitrary value, say 1, then solve for y.

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

ok but can u help me with that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What can be simpler. x=1, solve for y. You have done it hundreds of times in algebra when plotting graphs.

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

yes so i got 2

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

srry -2

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

is that right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

now can u help me with another point

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Arbitrary: pick any point for x and solve for y, or vice versa, any for y, solve for x

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

i pick 2 for x

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

so it is (2-4)^2/9-(y+2)^2/16=1

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

can u go step by step with me

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

on this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Just take it piece by piece (2-4) When you take it in little bits it's easy. How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.
