Step 1
The asymptotes occur when the denominator of G(s) is equal to zero. So, we set s(s+1)(s+3) = 0 and solve for s. s(s+1)(s+3) = 0 s = 0, -1, -3 So, we have three asymptotes: s = 0, s = -1, and s = -3. Show more…

A hyperbola has branches that open to the sides. Its asymptotes have equations y = x/2 - 3 and y = -x/2 + 1 and the distance between its vertices is 8. Find the equation of the hyperbola in the form ((x-h)^2)/a^2 - ((y-k)^2)/b^2 = 1 or ((y-k)^2)/a^2 - ((x-h)^2)/b^2 = 1.
