A graph is constructed such that time (in hours) is the x-variable and distance (in miles) is the y-variable. If you plot the di

What are the points of discontinutity y=(x-3)/x^2-12x+27

madreJ [45]

Answer:

$(3, -\frac{1}{6})$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can rewrite the equation as

$y = \frac{x - 3}{(x - 3)(x - 9)}$

Notice that we have $x - 3$ in both the numerator and the denominator, so it looks like we can divide it out. However, what if $x - 3$ is $0$ ? Then we would have $y = \frac{0}{0 \times (x - 9)} = \frac{0}{0}$ , which is undefined. So although it looks like the numerator and denominator can be simplified, the resulting function we would get from simplification would not have the same behavior as this one (since such a function would be defined for $x = 3$ , but this one is not).

A point of discontinuity refers to a particular point which is included in the simplified function, but which is not included in the original one. In this case, the point which is not included in the unsimplified function is at $x = 3$ . In the simplified version of the function, if we plug in $x = 3$ , we get

$y = \frac{1}{((3) - 9)} = -\frac{1}{6}$

So the point $(3, -\frac{1}{6})$ is our only point of discontinuity.

It's also important to distinguish between specific points of discontinuity and vertical asymptotes. This function also has a vertical asymptote at $x = 9$ (since it causes the denominator to be 0), but the difference in behavior is that in the case of the asymptote, only the denominator becomes 0 for a specific value of $x$

The volume of a cylinder is 2,200 pie cubic inches. The diameter of the circular base is 10 inches. What is the height of the cy

Elis [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

H = V/ pie r^2

H = $\frac{2200pie}{Pie 5^2}$

R= 5 because the radius is half the diameter

Pies cancel out leaving you with:

H = 2200/5^2

H = 2200/25

H = 88

Hope this helps :)

In one year, the Perseid meteor shower had a meteor appear every 1 1/5 minutes on average. That same year, the Leonid meteor sho

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

325,452 more meteors fell during the Perseid meteor shower

Step-by-step explanation:

An year has 365 days.

Each day has 24 hours.

Each hour has 60 minutes.

Minutes in an year:

365*24*60 = 525600

Persoid:

$1 + \frac{1}{5} = 1 + 0.2 = 1.2$

One each 1.2 minutes. How many during an year?

1 meteor - 1.2 minutes.

x meteors - 525600 minutes.

$1.2x = 525600$

$x = \frac{525600}{1.2}$

$x = 438000$

438,000 meteors fell during the Persoid shower.

Leonid:

$4 + \frac{2}{3} = 4.67$

One each 4.67 minutes. How many during an year.

1 meteor - 4.67 minutes.

x meteors - 525600 minutes.

$4.67x = 525600$

$x = \frac{525600}{4.67}$

$x = 112548$

112,548 meteors fell during the Leonid Shower.

How many more meteors fell during the Perseid meteor shower?

438,000 - 112,548 = 325,452

325,452 more meteors fell during the Perseid meteor shower
