HELP WITH 2 ALGEBRA QUESTIONS PLLLLZ http://prntscr.com/3ktzj5 http://prntscr.com/3ktzlr
@Johnbc could you help a lil? u seemed to know what u were doing yesterday
@jim_thompson5910 here are some more i have no idea how to do them
hey john do you have an idea on how to solve this?
@kales9616 come here and hlp plz
For the first image we can see that the hyperbola is with a vertical transverse axis so the general equation for that would kind of hyperbola would be:\[\frac{ (y-k)^2 }{ b^2 }-\frac{ (x-h)^2 }{ a^2 }= 1\] where the (h,k) represent the center of the hyperbola
automatically we can see that the the center for the x axis (h) is -4 and that the middle is 7 so if we plug that in for h and k we get
\[\frac{ (y-7)^2 }{ b^2 }-\frac{ (x-(-4))^2 }{ a^2 }\]
so the -4 turns into positive 4 and we have the top of our equation as for the bottom i am unsure of how to solve for the asymptote of this hyperbola so you will need a second opinion
what is b^2?
it will be an asymptote which i do not recall how to find
oh.... ok well ty for ur hellp on that one, do you know how to solve the other one?
