The limit is x---->4-
The negative show that x approaches from the left
Now
As x approaches 4 from the left ... Means This number should be less than 4 (<4) but really close to 4.
Let's pick a Number
Say 3.99
Substitute this... You have
3.99/3.99-4
3.99/-0.01
If we choose x to be 3.999
we will have
3.999/-0.001
Notice the pattern... As x approaches 4 from the left... This limit will approach NEGATIVE INFINITY
Why?
As you approach 4 from the left... 3.9,3.99,3.999... You notice that the denominator becomes negative and EXTREMELY SMALL... and when you divide by an extremely small Number..... You'll get a relatively HUGE VALUE(You can try this... Use a calc... Divide any number of choice by a very small number... say.. 0.0000001.... You'll get a huge result
In our case... The denominator is negative... So it Will Approach a very Huge Negative Number
Hence
Answer.. X WILL APPROACH NEGATIVE INFINITY.
Vertical asymptotes are the zeroes of the denominator of a function
The denom. is x-4
Equate to zero to get the asymptote
x-4=0
x=4
Hence... There will be a vertical asymptote at x=4.
Have a great day!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
He can drive about 680 miles in 10 hours.
Remark
Don't try and do this all at once. Break it down, otherwise you'll have layers and brackets all over the place.
Step One
Find 23/0.3
X = 23/0.3 = 76.7
Step Two
Now Divide by 20
x1 = 76.7 / 20
x1 = 3.83
Step Three
Take this result and put it over 24
x2 = x1/24
x2 = 3.83 / 24
x2 = 0.1597 <<<< Answer
