\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{negative exponents}
\\\\
a^{-n} \implies \cfrac{1}{a^n}
\qquad \qquad
\cfrac{1}{a^n}\implies a^{-n}
\qquad \qquad 
a^n\implies \cfrac{1}{a^{-n}}
\\\\
-------------------------------

\bf \textit{area of a rectangle}\\\\
A=WL~~
\begin{cases}
W=width\\
L=length\\
-----\\
A=24a^2b\\
L=8ab^2
\end{cases}\implies 24a^2b=W(8ab^2)\implies \cfrac{24a^2b}{8ab^2}=W
\\\\\\
\cfrac{24}{8}\cdot \cfrac{a^2b}{ab^2}=W\implies 3\cdot \cfrac{a^2a^{-1}}{b^2b^{-1}}=W\implies 3\cdot \cfrac{a^{2-1}}{b^{2-1}}=W\implies \cfrac{3a}{b}=W

Consider the following equation: f(x)=x^2+4\4x^2-4x-8 name the vertical asymptote(s)
zhenek [66]

ANSWER

The vertical asymptotes are


\Rightarrow x=2\:or\:x=-1

<u>EXPLANATION</u>

We have

f(x)=\frac{x^2+4}{4x^2-4x-8}


For vertical asymptotes we set the denominator to zero and solve the quadratic equation;

4x^2-4x-8=0


\Rightarrow x^2-x-2=0

We split the middle term to obtain,

x^2+x-2x-2=0

\Rightarrow x(x+1)-2(x+1)=0


\Rightarrow (x-2)(x+1)=0


\Rightarrow x=2\:or\:x=-1


Therefore the vertical asymptotes are


x=2\:or\:x=-1

-3(3+x)+4(x-6)=-4 Please help me with this question
dsp73

Answer:

\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \sf{x = 29}}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf{ - 3(3 + x) + 4(x - 6) =  - 4 }

Distribute -3 through the parentheses

Similarly, Distribute 4 through the parentheses

⇒\sf{ - 9 - 3x + 4x - 24 =  - 4}

Collect like terms

⇒\sf{x - 9 - 24 =  - 4}

Calculate

⇒\sf{x - 33 =  - 4}

Move 33 to right hand side and change it's sign

⇒\sf{x =  -  4 + 33}

Calculate

⇒\sf{x = 29}

Hope I helped!

Best regards!!

You can find the answer by plugging in any of the multiple choice options into a,
when you square a number (^2), the result is always positive even if the number starts off negative, 
 -25 or 125 wouldn't work for this equation because the answer is too big
but when you plug -5 or 5 in you get the right answer, so the answer is c
