I have a quiz later i will give medal please help me: A hyperbola centred at (3, 1) opens left and right and has asymptotes with slopes of +5 and -5.
@jim_thompson5910
i always start with a drawing to organize the information
what do we know from the information already?
have the equation of hyperbola
right, you should be able to know some of the parts, and how to orient the x and y parts, positive for negative, and find one of the denominators
C(3,1) and asymptote of +5 and - 5
i have only 30 min.. to review and i have a quiz, please amistre :D
im not taking your quiz so you need to start telling me how to build this, and ill correct you as needed.
are those the slopes of the asymptotes? +- 5 ?
so it means: y=+-5x , you dont know this?
i was clarifying since it was vague
so how can we find the equation by using this?
since asymptotes is (y-k)=+-b/a(x-h)
|dw:1431051096937:dw| we cant, at least nothing concrete without a vertex or focus .... or axis length
