*Asymptotes* g(x) =2x+1/x-3 Give the domain and x and y intercepts

Nataly [62]

Answer: Assuming the function is $g(x)=\frac{2x+1}{x-3}$ :

The x-intercept is $(\frac{-1}{2},0)$ .

The y-intercept is $(0,\frac{-1}{3})$ .

The horizontal asymptote is $y=2$ .

The vertical asymptote is $x=3$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to assume the function is: $g(x)=\frac{2x+1}{x-3}$ and not $g(x)=2x+\frac{1}{x}-3$ .

So we are looking at $g(x)=\frac{2x+1}{x-3}$ .

The x-intercept is when y is 0 (when g(x) is 0).

Replace g(x) with 0.

$0=\frac{2x+1}{x-3}$

A fraction is only 0 when it's numerator is 0. You are really just solving:

$0=2x+1$

Subtract 1 on both sides:

$-1=2x$

Divide both sides by 2:

$\frac{-1}{2}=x$

The x-intercept is $(\frac{-1}{2},0)$ .

The y-intercept is when x is 0.

Replace x with 0.

$g(0)=\frac{2(0)+1}{0-3}$

$y=\frac{2(0)+1}{0-3}$

$y=\frac{0+1}{-3}$

$y=\frac{1}{-3}$

$y=-\frac{1}{3}$ .

The y-intercept is $(0,\frac{-1}{3})$ .

The vertical asymptote is when the denominator is 0 without making the top 0 also.

So the deliminator is 0 when x-3=0.

Solve x-3=0.

Add 3 on both sides:

x=3

Plugging 3 into the top gives 2(3)+1=6+1=7.

So we have a vertical asymptote at x=3.

Now let's look at the horizontal asymptote.

I could tell you if the degrees match that the horizontal asymptote is just the leading coefficient of the top over the leading coefficient of the bottom which means are horizontal asymptote is $y=\frac{2}{1}$ . After simplifying you could just say the horizontal asymptote is $y=2$ .

Or!

I could do some division to make it more clear. The way I'm going to do this certain division is rewriting the top in terms of (x-3).

$y=\frac{2x+1}{x-3}=\frac{2(x-3)+7}{x-3}=\frac{2(x-3)}{x-3}+\frac{7}{x-3}$

$y=2+\frac{7}{x-3}$

So you can think it like this what value will y never be here.

7/(x-3) will never be 0 because 7 will never be 0.

So y will never be 2+0=2.

The horizontal asymptote is y=2.

(Disclaimer: There are some functions that will cross over their horizontal asymptote early on.)

The definition of parallel lines requires the undefined terms line and plane, while the definition of perpendicular lines requir

Tomtit [17]

Point, line, and plane are the undefined expression that relinquish the starting location for geometry. When we define words, we ordinarily use simpler words, and these simpler words are in turn defined using yet simpler words. This procedure must eventually abort; at some stage, the definition must use a word whose meaning is accepted as intuitively clear. Because that meaning is accepted without definition, we refer to these words as undefined terms. These terms will be used in defining other terms. Although these expressions are not formally defined, a brief intuitive dialogue is needed. A point is the most fundamental object in geometry. It is represented by a dot and named by a capital letter. A point constitute position only. A line (straight line) can be thought of as a connected set of infinitely many points. It extends infinitely far in two opposite directions. A line has boundless length, zero width, and zero height. Any two points on the line name it. The symbol ↔ written on top of two letters is used to denote that line. A plane may be contemplating as an infinite set of points creating a connected flat surface extending infinitely far in all directions. It is usually represented in drawings by a four‐sided figure. A single capital letter is used to designate a plane.

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

12 hr. mowing lawns

28 hr. working at Mc Donalds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t = time mowing lawns

then 40 - t = time working at McDonalds

7,5(40 - t) + 6t = 282

300 - 7.5t + 6t = 282

-1.5t = -18

t = 12 hr. mowing lawns

40 - t = 40 - 12 = 28 hr. working at Mc Donalds
