OpenStudy (jiteshmeghwal9):

the graph is a hyperbola

zarkam21 (zarkam21):

I understand, and I know it can either be choice A or D, that's what I'm stuck on.

http://www.mathwarehouse.com/hyperbola/images/compare-hyperbola-graphs.gif x^2/a^2 - y^2/b^2 = 1 where a point will be (a, 0) and (-a, 0) can you find the value of a from your graph?

zarkam21 (zarkam21):

So D

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

No idea, what did you get a = ?

OpenStudy (jiteshmeghwal9):

zarkam21 (zarkam21):

Oh so @jiteshmeghwal9 it is d

OpenStudy (welshfella):

a is 17 from the diagram diagram

OpenStudy (welshfella):

the genaral form is x^2/a^2 - y^2 / b^2 = 1

zarkam21 (zarkam21):

So A?

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

yes

OpenStudy (welshfella):

yes
