The graph of the equation below is a hyperbola. In which directions does this hyperbola open? x^2/13^2 - y^2/7^2 = 1 I don't get it, would it be Left and Right or up and down?
--------------
In that format, if the x^2 term and the coefficient are positive, it's left and right.
x^2/13^2 - y^2/7^2 = c^2
---------------
x^2/13^2 - y^2/7^2 = -c^2 would be up and down.
