Answer:

Measure of the angle is 6°

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the measure of compliment.

The angle = 90 - x

We know that sum of an angle and its compliment is equal to 90°.

So, According to the Question

90 - x = x - 78

90 + 78 = x + x   (transpose 78 to LHS and x to RHS )

x + x = 90 + 78  

2x = 168

x = 84

So, Angle = 90 - x = 90- 84 = 6

Therefore, Measure of the angle is 6°

Complementary angles add up to 90'
So let X= angle 1
         Y=angle 2
So x+y=90
let x=y-78
so(y-78)+y=90
y-78+y=90
2y-78=90
2y=90+78
2y=168
y=168/2
y=84
x=y-78
so x=84-78
x=6
And 6+84=90
So the measure of the angle is 6 degrees.

Show all work to identify the asymptotes and end behavior of the function f(x)= 5x/x-25.
jeyben [28]

Considering the given function and the asymptote concept, we have that:

  • The vertical asymptote is of x = 25.
  • The horizontal asymptote is of y = 5.
  • The end behavior is that as x \rightarrow \infty, f(x) \rightarrow 5.

<h3>What are the asymptotes of a function f(x)?</h3>

  • The vertical asymptotes are the values of x which are outside the domain, which in a fraction are the zeroes of the denominator.
  • The horizontal asymptote is the value of f(x) as x goes to infinity, as long as this value is different of infinity. Hence it also gives the end behavior of the function.

In this problem, the function is:

f(x) = \frac{5x}{x - 25}.

The vertical asymptote is found as follows:

x - 25 = 0 -> x = 25.

The horizontal asymptote is found as follows:

y = \lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} f(x) = \lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} \frac{5x}{x - 25} = \lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} \frac{5x}{x} = \lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} 5 = 5.

Hence the end behavior is that as x \rightarrow \infty, f(x) \rightarrow 5.
