Question

Identify the equation of the translated graph in general form x^2-y^2=9 for T(-4,2)

Answer 1

Looking at the choices, B is the right answer.

Answer 2

B

Explanation:

The equation
`x^2-y^2=a` under the translation of T (p,q) will have the form
`(x-p)^2-(y-q)^2=a`

Now, using the translation T(-4,2) in the equation given, we can write:

`(x+4)^2-(y-2)^2-9=0\\x^2+8x+16-y^2+4y-4-9=0\\x^2-y^2+8x+4y+3=0`

Looking at the choices, B is the right answer.
