What is the equation of a hyperbola with a = 5 and c = 15? Assume that the transverse axis is horizontal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the equation of  hyperbola centered at the origin with transverse horizontal axis has the general form:

since we know that a = 5 ,and c = 15,we can solve for b:

then the equation of the hyperbola becomes:

  y= -3x is the required function.

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given a table:

x             y

0             0

1             -3

3             -9

-2             6

we can see that the values of y is -3 times the value of x

hence, the function would be: y= -3x.

put the values of x will give the same y as in the table that means function is satisfying the given table.

both equations and proportions are better.
