The vertical asymptotes are:  "x = 3" and "x = -3" .
__________________________________________
The horizontal asymptote is:  "y = 2"  .  
___________________________________________
Explanation:
___________________________________________

f(x) = \frac{x^{2}+ 3}{ x^{2} - 9} ;

We know that "(x² − 9) ≠ 0 ; since we cannot divide by "0" ; so the "denominator" in the fraction cannot be "0" ;

 since: 9 − 9 = 0 ;  "x² " cannot equal 9.

So, what values for "x" exist when "x = 9" ?

 x² = 9 ;  

Take the square root of EACH SIDE of the equation ; to isolate "x" on one side of the <span>equation ; and</span> to solve for "x" ;

  √(x²) = √9 ;

     x = ± 3 
<span>__________________________________________
So; the vertical asymptotes are:  "x = 3" and "x = -3" .
__________________________________________
The horizontal asymptote is:  "y = 2"  .  
__________________________________________
(since:  We have: </span>f(x) = \frac{x^{2}+ 3}{ x^{2} - 9} ;

The "x² / x² " as the highest degree polymonials; both with "implied" coefficients of "1" ; and both raised to the same exponential power of "2".

Kim's softball team was playing in the championship game. When there were 444 innings left, the team was losing by a score of 17
olga nikolaevna [1]

The inequality to determine the number of runs per inning, p Kim's team could have scored is; 4r + 6 > 17

<h3>How to write an Inequality?</h3>

Let r represent the number of runs per inning. Thus for 4 innings, we have 4r.

The team already has 6 runs. Now add the additional runs to this to get;

4r + 6

The team wants to score more than the other team, this means they need more than 17 and so the inequality required is;

4r + 6 > 17

Subtract 6 from each side to get;

4r + 6 - 6 > 17 - 6

4r > 11

Divide both sides by 4 to get:

r > 2.75

Approximating to a whole number gives;

r > 3

The midpoint of AB is M(3, -1). If the coordinates of A are (5,1), what are the
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Given parameters:

Midpoint of AB =  M(3, -1)

Coordinates of A = (5,1)

Unknown:

Coordinates of B = ?

Solution:

To find the mid point of any line, we use the expression below;

              x_{m}   = \frac{x_{1} + x_{2}  }{2}    and y_{m}  = \frac{y_{1} + y_{2}  }{2}

where x_{m}  and y_{m} = coordinates of the mid points = 3 and -1

   x₁  = 5 and y₁ = 1

  x₂ = ?  and y₂ = ?

Now let us input the variables and solve,

            3  = \frac{5 + x_{2} }{2}           and     -1 = \frac{1 + y_{2} }{2}

    5 +  x₂  = 6                          -2 = 1  + y₂

            x₂ = 1                             y₂ = -2 -1 = -3

The coordinates of B = 1, -3
