Answer:
A)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression:
To factor the given expression completely.
Solution:
In order to factor the expression, we will factor in pairs.
We will factor the G.C.F of the terms in the pairs.
G.C.F. of and
can be given as:
Thus, G.C.F. =
G.C.F. of and
can be given as:
Thus, G.C.F. =
The expression after factoring the G.C.F. pairs is given as:
Taking G.C.F. of the whole expression as is a common term.
The expression is completely factored.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertical asymptotes need to be in the denominator. They become VA's when that small expression value equals zero.
x=-2 will become (x+2)
and x=-6 will become (x+6)
The x intercepts will be in the numerator.
x=-1 will go with (x+1) and x=3 will go with (x-3)
The horizontal A must be the quotient of the coefficient of the numerator and denominator, since both the top and bottom have the same power.
To make the quotient 7, we place a seven in the numerator so 7/1=7.
