In a rational function, holes are located where f(x) is undefined(the denominator is 0), but the undefined points can be factored out. In f(x), when x is 4 or -3, f(x) is undefined. But, x+3 can be factored out, so it is a hole. The hole is located at (-3,-1/7)
Answer: (2x - 1)(3x - 4)
(split -11x as -8x and -3x)
Step-by-step explanation:
I am assuming that it is actually 6x^2 - 11x + 4
To find out how to split the middle term: The two numbers should multiply to a*c (6*4 = 24) and add to b (-11)
-8, -3 works
(6x^2 - 8x) + (-3x + 4)
2x(3x - 4) + -1(3x - 4)
(2x - 1)(3x - 4)
Answer:
(a)80 feet
(b)$120,000
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Part A</u>
<u>Intersecting Secant-Tangent Theorem</u>
If a tangent segment and a secant segment are drawn to a circle from an exterior point, then the square of the measure of the tangent segment is equal to the product of the measures of the secant segment and its external secant segment.
In the attached diagram, the theorem applied is:

Comparing with our diagram:
|AX|=30 feet
|UX|=10 feet
Length of the Bridge,L
Therefore:

900=10(L+10)
L+10=900/10
L+10=90
L=90-10=80 feet
Length of the Bridge=80 feet
<u>Part B</u>
If each foot costs $1500
Cost of the bridge=$1500*80=$120,000
(6,-7)
This is because if the midpoint to one endpoint goes right 1 and up 5, then the other endpoint will be left 1 and down 5
