The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the center and eccentricity of the hyperbola given its asymptotes, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write down the equations of the asymptotes The equations of the asymptotes are given as: 1. \(4x - 3y + 8 = 0\) (Equation 1) 2. \(3x + 4y - 7 = 0\) (Equation 2) ### Step 2: Find the intersection point of the asymptotes (the center) To find the center of the hyperbola, we need to solve these two equations simultaneously. **Multiply Equation 1 by 4:** \[ 4(4x - 3y + 8) = 0 \implies 16x - 12y + 32 = 0 \quad (Equation 3) \] **Multiply Equation 2 by 3:** \[ 3(3x + 4y - 7) = 0 \implies 9x + 12y - 21 = 0 \quad (Equation 4) \] Now, we can add Equation 3 and Equation 4 to eliminate \(y\): \[ (16x - 12y + 32) + (9x + 12y - 21) = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ 25x + 11 = 0 \implies 25x = -11 \implies x = -\frac{11}{25} \] ### Step 3: Substitute \(x\) back to find \(y\) Now substitute \(x = -\frac{11}{25}\) back into Equation 1 to find \(y\): \[ 4\left(-\frac{11}{25}\right) - 3y + 8 = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ -\frac{44}{25} - 3y + 8 = 0 \] Converting \(8\) to a fraction: \[ -\frac{44}{25} - 3y + \frac{200}{25} = 0 \] Combining the fractions: \[ \frac{156}{25} - 3y = 0 \implies 3y = \frac{156}{25} \implies y = \frac{156}{75} = \frac{52}{25} \] ### Step 4: Write down the center of the hyperbola The center of the hyperbola is: \[ \left(-\frac{11}{25}, \frac{52}{25}\right) \] ### Step 5: Determine the slopes of the asymptotes The slopes of the asymptotes can be found from their equations: - For Equation 1: \(y = \frac{4}{3}x + \frac{8}{3}\) (slope = \(\frac{4}{3}\)) - For Equation 2: \(y = -\frac{3}{4}x + \frac{7}{4}\) (slope = \(-\frac{3}{4}\)) ### Step 6: Calculate the eccentricity Since the slopes of the asymptotes are perpendicular, we can conclude that the hyperbola is rectangular. The eccentricity \(e\) of a rectangular hyperbola is given by: \[ e = \sqrt{2} \] ### Final Answer The center of the hyperbola is \(\left(-\frac{11}{25}, \frac{52}{25}\right)\) and the eccentricity is \(\sqrt{2}\). ---
