ready to work the first one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

uhhh, sure?! (:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the first one is a left/right brach hyperbola. can you tell me the standard equation for that type of hyperbola?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

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

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correrct....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so all we gotta do is find (h, k) a = b = but you already know h,k... what is it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(h,k) = (0,0) a= 2 ? and i dont know what B is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that's great!...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you'll need to stick that point into that equation so you can find b... make like Nike and do it...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i'm referring to (3, sqrt3)
