For a hyperbola

where

the directrix is the line

and the focus is at (0, c).
Here, we have c = 5, a² = 9, so b² = 5² - 9 = 16.
a = √9 = 3
b = √16 = 4
Your hyperbola's constants are ...
a = 3
b = 4
______
Please note that the equation of a hyperbola has a negative sign for one of the terms. The equation given in your problem statement is that of an ellipse.
Answer:
The height of the baseball is 35 feet at the moment the player begins to leap.
If the data set represents the number of rings each person is wearing, being: 0,2,4,0,2,3,2,8,6, the interquartile range of the data is 2. Being, 4 as the Q1, 3 as the Q2 or median, and 6 as the Q3. Where the formula of getting the interquartile range is IQR= Q1-Q2.
Consider this option:
C³₂₇=27!/(3!*24!)=25*13*9=2925 ways to select 3 students.
