Q. What is the center of the hyperbola 25x2−y2−100=0?(_,_)
Move constant term:25x2−y2−100=0Move the constant term to the right side.25x2−y2=100
Convert to standard form:25x2−y2=100Convert the equation into standard form.Divide both sides of the equation by 100.(25x2)/100−y2/100=100/100x2/4−y2/100=1
Find center of hyperbola:4x2−100y2=1Find the center of the hyperbola.The standard form of the equation of a hyperbola centered at (h,k) is a2(x−h)2−b2(y−k)2=1.Here, the equation can be written as 4(x−0)2−100(y−0)2=1.Thus, h=0 and k=0.Center of the hyperbola: (0,0)
