Question 999326: Find the equation of the hyperbola having foci at(4,2)and (8,2) and eccentricity (e) is 2
Answer by MathLover1(20850) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
the equation is:

given:
foci at(,) and (,) and
eccentricity

The center is midway between the foci, so the center must be at (, ) = (, ). The foci are units to either side of the center, so and .
since , we have =>=>
since and , then

your equation is:
