Jenn's phone has a fully charged battery. With normal usage, he phone will last 16 hours. How long will her battery last if it only charged 30%? Can you show the work please, thank you!

The correct answer is 4.8 hours

Explanation:

This mathematical problem can be solved by using the rule of three, which involves finding an unknown value by using three related values. The process is shown below:

1. It is known a fully charged battery (100% battery) lasts 16 hours. This can be represented as 100 = 16. But it is not know how much a 30% battery last; this can be represented as 30 = x.

2. Write all the values

100 = 16

30 = x

3. Cross multiply to create an equation and solve the equation

100 x = 48

x = 480 / 100

x = 4.8

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.
