Question 197706: My problem is I have the equation: x^2 - y^2 + 24y > (or equal to) 148
Well I put it in graphing form which I believe is (x^2)/292 - (y^2+12)/292=1
Which makes it a Hyperbola, and I need to graph it but the radius is the square root of 292, which is 17.08800749, and that is too big to be graphed on my paper and that can't happen because it has to fit. So what did I do wrong? Could you tell me the correct equation and the vertical and horizontal radius?
I did not receive this question from a textbook.
