Find and equation for the hyperbola that satisfies the given conditions.
Vertices: (0,14), (0,-14) and passes through (-5,21)
***
Given hyperbola has a vertical transverse axis and center at the origin.
Its standard form of equation:
a=14 (distance from center to vertices)
a^2=196

solve for b^2
plug-in coordinates of given point on the curve(-5, 21)



25/b^2=2.25-1=1.25
b^2=25/1.25
b^2=20
equation:
