Respuesta :

y = x ⁄ (x – 4) That is what i used for that question and i got it right.

The required equation is [tex]x = \dfrac{4}{y-1} + 4[/tex].

Hyperbola

It is the locus of a point such that the difference of the distance from P to two fixed-point remains constant.

Given

Asymptotes of the hyperbola are x=4 and y=1.

Find the equation of a hyperbola.

How to get the equation of hyperbola?

x=4 and y=1 can be written as

x-4=0 and y-1=0

Then the product of asymptote and constant is equal to zero.

That is

[tex](x-4)(y-1) + \lambda = 0\\[/tex]

Let it passes through the origin (0,0) then

[tex]\begin{aligned} (0-4)(0-1)+ \lambda &= 0\\\lambda &= -4\\\end{aligned}[/tex]

Then our equation become

[tex]\begin{aligned} (x-4)(y-1) - 4 &= 0\\x &= \dfrac{4}{y-1} + 4 \\\end{aligned}[/tex]

Thus, the required equation is [tex]x = \dfrac{4}{y-1} + 4[/tex].
