Find where the equation is undefined ( when the denominator is equal to 0.
Since they say x = 5, replace x in the equation see which ones equal o:
5-5 = 0
So we know the denominator has to be (x-5), this now narrows it down to the first two answers.
To find the horizontal asymptote, we need to look at an equation for a rational function: R(x) = ax^n / bx^m, where n is the degree of the numerator and m is the degree of the denominator.
In the equations given neither the numerator or denominators have an exponent ( neither are raised to a power)
so the degrees would be equal.
Since they are equal the horizontal asymptote is the y-intercept, which is given as -2.
This makes the first choice the correct answer.
Answer:
There were 7 small boxes and 14 large boxes shipped.
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem may be solved by a system of equations:
I am going to say that:
x is the number of small boxes used
y is the number of large boxes used
There were twice as many large boxes shipped as small boxes shipped
This means that y = 2x
Each small box of paper weighs 45 pounds and each large box of paper weighs 80 pounds. The total weight of all boxes was 1435 pounds.
This means that 45x + 80y =1435
So we have to solve the following system:
y=2x
45x + 80y =1435
45x + 80 (2x) = 1435
205x = 1435
x= 1435/205
x=7
y=2x= 2(7) = 14
There were 7 small boxes and 14 large boxes shipped.
Answer:
D) y=-4x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(-2-6)/(1-(-1))
m=-8/(1+1)
m=-8/2
m=-4
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-6=-4(x-(-1))
y-6=-4(x+1)
y=-4x-4+6
y=-4x+2
Answer:
y^2+y-12
Step-by-step explanation:
Once again, FOIL is the way to go!
First, Outside, Inside, Last
y^2+y-12
Answer: Total number of pairs =872
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Number of pairs of skates during the month of April =218
Number of pairs of skates during the month of May =3 × 218=654
As we know that total means altogether in which we perform the additive operation.
Total pairs of skates the skating rent during April and May = 218+654=872
∴ Total number of pairs =872
