What is the length of the transverse axis of the conic section shown below?

(x+2)^2/16 - (y-3)^2/9 =1

Length of the transverse axis of the given conic section = 8 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of hyperbola that has a horizontal orientation in the standard form is;

             .....[1]

The center is (h, k) , the vertices are and

Since, the vertices are on the hyperbola, but the co-vertices are not on the hyperbola.

Since, the equation of the conic section is given as:

On comparing with equation [1]

⇒ center = ( -2 , 3 ) and

units

and

units

Length of the transverse axis is the distance between the two vertices, 2a = 2(4) = 8 units.

wholesale price is the initial price before markup. retail price comes after the markup.

a price of 8 bucks that's marked up by 100%   is

formula: initial price + (percent markup in fraction/decimal)(initial price)

8+(1)(8)

8+8

16

retail price is $16.

her total is 2

  -3+5=2
