Plzzz help me im having alot of trouble understanding this question does some one understand if you do plz help fast!!! 1/2 - 3(1/2 + 1)²

(1 + 1/3)² - 2/9

1/2 - 3(1/2 + 1)²

simplify the expression (1/2 + 1)

1/2 - 3•(3/2)²

using PEMDAS, we see we have to evaluate the exponent first

(3/2)² = 9/4

rewrite the equation

1/2 - 3 • (9/4)

multiply 3 by (9/4)

1/2 - (27/4)

subtract

-25/4

(1 + 1/3)² - 2/9

simplify the expression (1 + 1/3)

(4/3)² - 2/9

using PEMDAS, we see we have to evaluate the exponent first

(4/3)² = 16/9

rewrite the equation

(16/9) - (2/9)

subtract

14/9

x = -2

y = 848

step-by-step explanation:

plug in the numbers

the transverse axis of a hyperbola is the line that contains the two vertices and the two focuses.

in this example (hyperbola of equation x^2/2 - y^2/4 = 1), the transverse axis is the  x-axis  .
