Reason
The template is very close to the vertex form where the vertex is (h,k). The vertex represents either the highest point or the lowest point on the parabola (depending if the parabola opens downward or upward).
In this case h = 9 and k = -2. Also, c = 1.
So we go from to which can be rewritten as
Compare that with and you'll find that a = -9 and b = -2
= 1/10 pound x 1/10 pound
= 1/100 pound
= 1 penny
=> 1 pound = 1 penny
How is this possible if 1 pound = 100 pennies
Answer:
The lens is 1 inch from the mirror
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets revise the equation of the hyperbola with center (0 , 0) and
transverse axis parallel to the y-axis is y²/a² - x²/b² = 1
- The coordinates of the vertices are (0 , ± a)
- The coordinates of the co-vertices are (± b , 0)
- The coordinates of the foci are (0 , ± c) where c² = a² + b²
* Lets solve the problem
∵ The equation of the hyperbola is y²/16 - x²/9 = 1
∵ The form of the equation is y²/a² - x²/b² = 1
∴ a² = 16
∴ a = √16 = 4
∵ The coordinates of the vertices are (0 , ± a)
∴ The coordinates of the vertices are (0 , 4) , (0 , -4)
∴ b² = 9
∴ b = √9 = 3
∵ c² = a² + b²
∴ c² = 16 + 9 = 25
∴ c = √25 = 5
∵ The coordinates of the foci are (0 , ± c)
∴ The coordinates of the foci are (0 , 5) , (0 , -5)
∵ The camera is pointed towards the vertex of the hyperbolic mirror
which is (0 , 4) and is positioned such that the lens is at the nearest
focus to that vertex which is (0 , 5)
∴ The distance between the lens and the mirror equal the distance
between the vertex and the focus
∵ The vertex is (0 , 4) and the nearest focus is (0 , 5)
∴ The distance = 5 - 4 = 1 inch
* The lens is 1 inch from the mirror

In two column format prove that triangle TAN is congruent to triangle TRI
Answer:
-1/20
Step-by-step explanation:
For a graph like this you should make the gallons of gas on y-axis and the miles driven on the x-axis.
To find slope the formula is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
So in this case it is 2-4/40-0
-2/40
This reduces to -1/20
