Answer:


((y-5)^2)/(16)-((x-7)^2)/(9)=1

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of an hyperbola is:


((y-k)^2)/(a^2)-((x-h)^2)/(b^2)=1

Where (h, k) are the coordinates of the center.

We are given the asyptotes and the foci.

The foci are (7, 0) and (7, 10)

The y value of the center of the parabola is midway from the two foci. Then, the y-coordinate of the center is 5

The coordinated of the center are (7, 5)

Now, we can use that the form of the asymptotes are:


y=k\pm(a)/(b)(x-h)

We have:


y-5=(4)/(3)(x-7)

Then:


(a)/(b)=(4)/(3)

a = 4

b = 3

Now we can write:


undefined
