For this case we have the following function:
 f (x) = (5x + 10) / (x ^ 2 + 7x + 10)
 
 Let's rewrite the function:
 f (x) = (5x + 10) / ((x + 2) (x + 5))

 f (x) = (5 (x + 2)) / ((x + 2) (x + 5))
 We set the denominator to zero to see the values of x for which it is not defined:
 (x + 2) (x + 5) = 0
 
 From here, we get:
 x = -2
 
x = -5

 There is a removable discontinuity at x = -2, since by rewriting the function we have:
 f (x) = 5 / (x + 5)
 
 Answer:
 
the removable discontinuity of f (x) is located at:
 
x = -2

<span>The correct answer is x= - 2.

Explanation:
A removable discontinuity happens where y=(0/0). To find this, we first factor the numerator and denominator.

For our numerator, we factor out the GCF; 5 is the GCF. Factoring 5 out of 5x leaves x, and factoring 5 out of 10 leaves 2, which gives us 5(x+2).

To factor the denominator, we want factors of c, 10, that sum to b, 7. 5*2=10 and 5+2=7, so this gives us (x+5)(x+2).

Next we find the common factors in the numerator and denominator; (x+2) is the common factor. We set this equal to 0: x+2=0. Now we solve for x by subtracting 2 from each side: x+2-2=0-2; x= - 2.  </span>

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d - the formula of n-th term of an arithmetic sequence.

We have:

a_9-a_5=(9-5)d\to4d=22.4-12.4\\\\4d=10\ \ \ \ |:4\\\\d=2.5

a_{31}=a_9+(31-9)d\to a_{31}=22.4+22\cdot2.5=77.4

lidiya [134]

Answer:

See explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is subtraction

whole numbers, then numerators.

6 - 2 = 4

1/2 - 3/8

= 4/8 - 3/8 (1/2 = 4/8)

= 1/8

= 4 1/8

hope this helps!

9.b) At about 7.4 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation

Yes, on #7 the function is located 3 places to the right and 2.5 up, but that's just counting the tiny squares. If you look at the number and problem, on #8, you can't add +2.5, because the rocket wasn't on a platform 2.5 feet high. Remember that outside the parentheses + means up and - means down. So add + 20(ft).    but for question 8, and 9. b), try these answers. please mark brainlest
