number of laps graham swam during the
two months.

points
or
a

part b
write and solve equations to represent
your arrays or area models.

3

step-by-step explanation:

divide 13.5 by 9 to get the scale factor. it equals 1.5

2 * 1.5 = 3

step-by-step explanation:

graph using a few selected

x         y

-1       15

0         6

1         2.4

2       0.96

the ratios are reciprocals im positive

step-by-step explanation:

they are all positive numbers so it wouldn't be the other ones

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.
