Question

What are the vertices of the hyperbola with equation 4y^2-25x^2=100? Graph the hyperbola

Answer 1

@iGreen

Answer 2

do you know what it looks like? you need to know that first

Answer 3

All I know is that it's a hyperbola

Answer 4

which way it it oriented ?

Answer 5

if you know that, we can answer the question instantly more or less

Answer 6

hint: you can tall by which comes first, the x or the y

Answer 7

*tell

Answer 9

yes, we see the y comes first
that means it looks like the one on the right, not on the left

Answer 10

okay.

Answer 11

how do I find the vertices? do I need to divide by 100?

Answer 12

divide all by 100 to put it in the standard form,, you get
\[\frac{y^2}{25}-\frac{x^2}{16}=1\]
