Notice that we can simplify both numerator and denominator of our rational function. In the numerator we have a quadratic expression of the form

. To to simplify it, we are going to find tow numbers that add to 2 and multiply to -8; those numbers are 4 and -2.

In the denominator we have a difference of squares:

Now we can rewrite our function:

From the simplified form of our rational function we can infer that its graph has two vertical asymptotes at

and
We can conclude that the graphic of our rational function is:
21/100 is a fraction form
Answer: 24 apples
Step-by-step explanation: $20.00 = 8 pounds and 16 ounces = 1 pound So you can do $120.00 divided by 5 = 24 apples
In this item, we will be able to form a system of linear equation which are shown below,
292 = 400x + y
407 = 900x + y
where x is the percent of the commission that he gets and y is the wage. The values of x and y from the equations are 0.23 and 200. This means that Justin earns a fixed wage of 200 per day and a commission which is equal to 23%.
Substituting the known values to the equation,
S = (0.23)(3200) + 200 = 936.
Therefore, Justin could have earned $936 had he sold $3,200 worth of merchandise.
