You can put this solution on YOUR website! How do you graph (x-4)^2/16-(y+4)^2/16=1
It's a hyperbola with center at (4,-4)
When y = -4, (x-4)^2 = 16
So x-4 = 4 or x-4 = -4
x = 8 or x = 0
Gives you two points: (8,-4) and (0,-4)
------
When x = 4, -(y+4)^2 = 1
(y+4)^2 = -1
y is imaginary.
So the hyperbola does not cross the line x = 4.
-------------------
The hyperbola opens to the right from (8,-4) and
to the left from (0,-4)
