Find the answer 2 (5 + 12x)

10+24x

Step-by-step explanation:

FOIL.

First

Outer

Inner

Last

Distribute or FOIL 2 to 5 and 12x

You can't add or combine them because they aren't like terms. The 12 has an x making it not like terms.

So you end up with 10+24x

let's first notice, the center of the hyperbola is at the origin, since the focus points are equidistantly 3 units away from the origin, that also means that the distance "c" from the center to either focus is 3.

it should also be notable that, the traverse axis for this hyperbola is vertical, or namely over the y-axis and therefore, the positive fraction will be the one with y-variable.

the traverse "a" component or distance from the center to either vertex is not 2, is more than 2, so we can safely put it at √5 ≈ 2.24.
