Question

Can someone please write the equation of hyperbola with vertices (0, -5) and (0, 5) and co-vertices (-2, 0) and (2, 0)?

Thank you so much!

Answer 1

Answer:

  y^2/25 -x^2/4 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation can be written as ...

  y^2/a^2 -x^2/b^2 = 1

where the vertices are at (0, ±a) and the co-vertices are at (±b, 0). Filling in the given values (a=5, b=2) gives the equation shown above.
