Answer:

the answer is 5.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

first you divide 37 by 39 to get .94871795

next you would subtract 1 by that number and you get

.05128205 which can be rounded to .051 or 5.1%

Can someone help me with this? I need to find the points of discontinuity/limits for each of these. I think one point is 4, but
Debora [2.8K]
The answers are shown in the attached image

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Explanation:

Set the denominator x^4-8x^3+16x^2 equal to zero and solve for x

x^4-8x^3+16x^2 = 0
x^2(x^2-8x+16) = 0
x^2(x-4)^2 = 0
x^2 = 0 or (x-4)^2 = 0
x = 0 or x-4 = 0
x = 0 or x = 4

The x values 0 and 4 make the denominator zero

These x values lead to asymptote discontinuities because the numerator 8x-24 = 8(x-3) has no common factors which cancel with the denominator factors.

There are two vertical asymptotes

Let's see what happens when we plug in a value to the left of x = 0, say x = -1, we'd get
f(x) = (8x-24)/(x^4-8x^3+16x^2)
f(-1) = (8(-1)-24)/((-1)^4-8(-1)^3+16(-1)^2)
f(-1) = -1.28
So as x gets closer and closer to x = 0 from the left side, the f(x) is heading to negative infinity

Now plug in some value to the right of x = 0. I'm going to pick x = 1
f(x) = (8x-24)/(x^4-8x^3+16x^2)
f(1) = (8(1)-24)/((1)^4-8(1)^3+16(1)^2)
f(1) = -1.78 (approximate)
So as x gets closer and closer to x = 0 from the right side, the f(x) is heading to negative infinity

Overall, as x approaches 0 from either the left or right side of x = 0, the y value is heading off to negative infinity

---------------------

Repeat for values to the left and right of x = 4
We can't use x = 1 as it turns out that x = 3 is a root
But we can use something like x = 3.5 to find that...
f(x) = (8x-24)/(x^4-8x^3+16x^2)
f(3.5) = (8(3.5)-24)/((3.5)^4-8(3.5)^3+16(3.5)^2)
f(3.5) = 1.31 approx
So as x gets closer to x = 4 from the left, y is getting closer to positive infinity

Plug in x = 5 to find that
f(x) = (8x-24)/(x^4-8x^3+16x^2)
f(5) = (8(5)-24)/((5)^4-8(5)^3+16(5)^2)
f(5) = 0.64
which has the same behavior as the left side

So overall, as we approach x = 4, the y value is heading off to positive infinity

Again everything is summarized in the image attachment

Note: you could make a table of more values but they would effectively say what has already been said. It would be redundant busy work. However, its always good practice for function evaluation.

4(2x+3)=x(3+5)+12<br> Help
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

8x + 12 = 3x + 5x + 12

8x + 12 = 8x + 12

Bringing like terms on one side

8x - 8x = 12 - 12

x = 0

Hey can u help me how to do this plz.
Svetach [21]
Okay so x represents the amount of tickets sold. So first, you’d add the $40 + $70 which equals $110. So x = $110.

Now we have to solve for y. Same thing but with different numbers. $200 + $260 = $460.
The answer is (110,460)
x. y.
