Answer:

  D) a hyperbola

Step-by-step explanation:

IMO, the image is not helpful, as it suggests the ends of the curve are nearly parallel to each other. In fact, the ends of the curve asymptotically approach straight lines parallel to the sides of the cone. That is, there are asymptotes that form an X shape. This is a characteristic of a hyperbola.

___

A parabola is formed when the plane cuts the cone parallel to one side. That cut plane only intersects one nap of the cone. At a shallower angle yet, one gets an ellipse. Parallel to a base, one gets a circle.

Someone could help me out to find the answer thanks​
Luden [163]

Answer:

  h(x) = 11/(x -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain of m(x) is restricted to x≠1. That means the domain of m(n(x)) must be restricted so that n(x)≠1, or x≠4.

The only offered choice with a domain restriction x≠4 is the 3rd choice:

  h(x) = 11/(x -4)
