Answer:

Step-by-step explain

Find the horizontal asymptote for f(x)=(3x^2-1)/(2x-1) :

A rational function will have a horizontal asymptote of y=0 if the degree of the numerator is less than the degree of the denominator. It will have a horizontal asymptote of y=a_n/b_n if the degree of the numerator is the same as the degree of the denominator (where a_n,b_n are the leading coefficients of the numerator and denominator respectively when both are in standard form.)

If a rational function has a numerator of greater degree than the denominator, there will be no horizontal asymptote. However, if the degrees are 1 apart, there will be an oblique (slant) asymptote.

For the given function, there is no horizontal asymptote.

We can find the slant asymptote by using long division:

(3x^2-1)/(2x-1)=(2x-1)(3/2x+3/4-(1/4)/(2x-1))

The slant asymptote is y=3/2x+3/4

Answer:

y = 3/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is  the ratio of the coefficients of the terms in x of highest degree of the function:

y  = 3/2.

Compute $\sqrt{25^2-7^2}$.
EastWind [94]

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

\sqrt{25^2-7^2}\\\\=\sqrt{(25-7)(25+7)}\\\\=\sqrt{18(32)}\\\\=\sqrt{9*2*2^5}\\\\=\sqrt{3^2\cdot 2^6}\\\\=\sqrt{(3\cdot2^3)^2}\\\\=3\cdot2^3\\\\=3\cdot8\\\\=24

Joel earns a commission of 5% on the audio equipment he sells , and the store keeps the rest . He sells a $750 amplifier. A. How
den301095 [7]

Answer:

Joel earns $35.00 commission and the store keeps $715.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to figure 5% of what he sold - or 5% of $750.

Of course, you can use a calculator, or multiply $750 by .05. I prefer to think of 10 percent ($75.00) and half that to get 5%. $35.00.

Joel earns $35.00 on the sale. Not bad!

If he gets to keep $35, deduct this from the price to find out how much the store will keep.

$750 - $35 - $715.

Given: y = 3x - 4. What is the x-intercept? (0, -4) ( 4/3 , 0) (0, 4/3 )
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

This equation is in slope-intercept form of y = mx + b form.

The m represented by the coefficient of the x term

represents the slope and b represents the y-intercept.

So our y-intercept is -4 and we can write this as the ordered pair (0, -4).
