Q. What is the center of the hyperbola 16x2−y2−64=0?(_,_)
Move constant term:16x2−y2−64=0Move the constant term to the right side of the equation.16x2−y2=64
Convert to standard form:16x2−y2=64Convert the equation into standard form by dividing both sides by 64.(16x2)/64−(y2)/64=64/64x2/4−y2/64=1
Identify center:4x2−64y2=1Identify the center of the hyperbola.The equation can be written as (x−0)2/4−(y−0)2/64=1.Here h=0 and k=0.Center of the hyperbola: (0,0)
