How many points of intersection are there between the graphs of the hyperbola and ellipse?
3x2 – 4y2 + 4x – 8y +4= 0
3x2 + y2 + 4x – 3y +4= 0
A.0
B. 1
C. 3
D.4

Sagot :

The point of intersection is the point where two or more functions meet.

The graphs of the hyperbola and ellipse have 0 point of intersection

The given parameters are:

[tex]\mathbf{3x^2 - 4y^2 + 4x - 8y + 4 = 0}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{3x^2 + y^2 + 4x - 3y + 4 = 0}[/tex]

To determine the points of intersection, we simply equate both equations.

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{3x^2 + y^2 + 4x - 3y + 4 = 3x^2 - 4y^2 + 4x - 8y + 4 }[/tex]

Cancel out the common terms

[tex]\mathbf{y^2 - 3y = - 4y^2 - 8y }[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]\mathbf{y^2 +4y^2= 3y - 8y }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{5y^2= - 5y }[/tex]

Divide through by 5

[tex]\mathbf{y^2= - y}[/tex]

Divide through by y

[tex]\mathbf{y= -1}[/tex]

The system of equation does not give room to calculate the x-coordinate at the x-axis.

Hence, the graphs of the hyperbola and ellipse have 0 point of intersection
