Question

Help with algebra 2 question?!?
A hyperbola has vertices (+-5,0) and one focus (6,0). What is the standard-form equation of the hyperbola?

Answer 1

hi!!

Answer 2

do you know what it looks like?

Answer 3

This?

Answer 4

eq = \[(y - h)^{2}/a ^{2} - (x-k)^{2}/b ^{2}= 1\]
where h and k are the center of teh hyperbola

Answer 5

a and b are asymptotes

Answer 6

Does that help?

Answer 7

If it doesn't tell what the center is, does that imply that it's at the origin?

Answer 8

yes
