Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by removing the brackets.
Left Brackets
30(1/2 x - 2)
30*1/2 x - 30*2
15x - 60
Right Bracket
40(3/4 y - 4)
40*3/4 y - 4*40
10*3 y - 160
30y - 160
Now put these 2 results together.
15x - 60 + 30y - 160 Combine the like terms.
15x + 30y - 220 That's one answer Others are possible.
5(3x + 6y - 44)
Let f(x) = p(x)/q(x), where p and q are polynomials and reduced to lowest terms. (If p and q have a common factor, then they contribute removable discontinuities ('holes').)
Write this in cases:
(i) If deg p(x) ≤ deg q(x), then f(x) is a proper rational function, and lim(x→ ±∞) f(x) = constant.
If deg p(x) < deg q(x), then these limits equal 0, thus yielding the horizontal asymptote y = 0.
If deg p(x) = deg q(x), then these limits equal a/b, where a and b are the leading coefficients of p(x) and q(x), respectively. Hence, we have the horizontal asymptote y = a/b.
Note that there are no obliques asymptotes in this case. ------------- (ii) If deg p(x) > deg q(x), then f(x) is an improper rational function.
By long division, we can write f(x) = g(x) + r(x)/q(x), where g(x) and r(x) are polynomials and deg r(x) < deg q(x).
As in (i), note that lim(x→ ±∞) [f(x) - g(x)] = lim(x→ ±∞) r(x)/q(x) = 0. Hence, y = g(x) is an asymptote. (In particular, if deg g(x) = 1, then this is an oblique asymptote.)
This time, note that there are no horizontal asymptotes. ------------------ In summary, the degrees of p(x) and q(x) control which kind of asymptote we have.
I hope this helps!

Answer:
replace recipe quantities:
1/4 ⇒ 5/8; 1/2 ⇒ 1 1/4; 1 ⇒ 2 1/2; 1 1/2 ⇒ 3 3/4; 2 ⇒ 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The given recipe serves 4, so must be multiplied by 10/4 = 5/2 to make it make 10 servings.
The numbers in the recipe (ignoring units or ingredients) are ...
1/4, 1/2, 1, 1 1/2, 2
Each of these numbers needs to be multiplied by 5/2 to get the number for the larger recipe.
1/4 × 5/2 = 5/8
1/2 × 5/2 = 5/4 = 1 1/4
1 × 5/2 = 5/2 = 2 1/2
(1 1/2) × 5/2 = 3/2 × 5/2 = 15/4 = 3 3/4
2 × 5/2 = 5
Then, to make the larger recipe, rewrite it with the quantities replaced as follows:
old value ⇒ new value
1/4 ⇒ 5/8
1/2 ⇒ 1 1/4
1 ⇒ 2 1/2
1 1/2 ⇒ 3 3/4
2 ⇒ 5
__
For example, 1 1/2 lbs of fresh tomatoes ⇒ 3 3/4 lbs of fresh tomatoes
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
If you actually want to create the recipe, you may find it convenient to use a spreadsheet to list quantities, units, and ingredient names. Then you can add a column for the quantities for a different number of servings, and let the spreadsheet figure the new amounts. (A spreadsheet will compute quantities in decimal, so you will need to be familiar with the conversions to fractions--or use metric quantities.)
