Question

How would I manage to get this to a form that I can use to graph a hyperbola?

36x^2-y^2-24x+6y-41=0

Answer 1

put it in standard for so you can identify the center, transverse, conjugate axes, etc....

Answer 2

(x-h)^2/a^2 - (y-k)^2/b^2 = 1

Answer 3

you will probably need to complete the square to get it in that form.

Answer 4

I think I got it.. let me work at it a bit

Answer 5

ok

Answer 6

thanks, I got it. I was just factoring wrong, hahah.

Answer 7
