Question 1103754: write an equation for the following conic. if it is a parabola, it has a vertex at the origin, and if it is an ellipse or a hyperbola, it is centered at the origin. vertex at (-2,0) and e= 3 Answer by Fombitz(32388) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hyperbolas have eccentricities greater than 1.
The vertices are 2 units from the center so
and
So,
