Answer:

  y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Any asymptotes of a rational function will be described by the quotient of the numerator and denominator (excluding any remainder).

  f(x)=\dfrac{-2x}{x+1}=-2+\dfrac{2}{x+1}

The horizontal asymptote is ...

Answer:

<h2> y = –2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

f(x)=\frac{-2x}{x+1}

An asymptote refers to a restriction in the domain or range set of the function. This happens to rational functions, because there's a scenario where the function is undetermined: when its denominator is zero.

So, in this case, the value that makes the denominator zero is

x+1=0\\x=-1

That means, we need to restrict the domain for x=-1. But this is a vertical asymptote.

To find horizontal asymptotes, we need to find the restrictions for the range of the function, we do that isolating y.

y=\frac{-2x}{x+1}\\yx+y=-2x\\yx+2x=-y\\x(y+2)=-y\\x=-\frac{y}{y+2}

So, if we analyse the denominator

y+2=0\\y=-2

Therefore, the restriction is y=-2. In other words, the vertical asymptote is the first choice.

Find a ⋅ b. a = 4i - 4j, b = 4i + 5j
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

value of a.b = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find a.b

a= 4i-4j

b = 4i+5j

We know that i.i =1, j.j=1, i.j =0 and j.i=0

a.b = (4i-4j).(4i+5j)

a.b = 4i(4i+5j)-4j(4i+5j)

a.b = 16i.i +20i.j-16j.i-20j.j

a.b = 16(1) +20(0)-16(0)-20(1)

a.b = 16 +0-0-20

a.b = 16-20

a.b =-4

So, value of a.b = -4

If f(x)=3x-1 and g(x)=x+5, find (f o g)(x) and (g o f)(x)<br><br> (f o g)(x)=<br><br> (g o f)(x)
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

(f o g)(x)= 3x + 14

(g o f)(x) = 3x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

(f o g)(x) = f(g(x)) = f(x + 5) = 3(x + 5) - 1 = 3x + 15 - 1 = 3x + 14

(g o f)(x) = g(f(x)) = g(3x - 1) = 3x - 1 + 5 = 3x + 4

qaws [65]

Answer:

f^{-1}(x)=\sqrt[3]{x}-6

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=(x+6)^3

y=(x+6)^3

x=(y+6)^3

\sqrt[3]{x}=y+6
