How to find the vertical asymptote of a function without a denominator?
Galina-37 [17]
Let's consider the equation; 

7x+2=y <-- no denominator present

If you look at the graph, you will also notice that there are no possible values of x that cannot be represented through this graph. There will always be a corresponding y coordinate. 

This can be applied to a wide range of equations where no denominator with an x value will have a vertical asymptote. Try to visualize a simpler situation with the same qualities if you don't know how to find the solution. 

Hope I helped :)

Heather, Shen, and Aldo served a total of 57 orders Monday at the school cafeteria. Shen served 2 times as many as Aldo. Aldo se
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Shen served 32 orders, Aldo served 16 orders and Heather served 9 orders

Step-by-step explanation:

Let S represent Shen, A, Aldo and H, Heather

Now, let's interpret the question

Shen served 2 times as many as Aldo, this gives:

S = 2A          ...eq 1

Aldo served 7 more orders than Heater

A = 7 + H     ... eq 2

Slot in the value of A in eq 1

Therefore,

S = 2 (7 + H)

Expand the bracket

S = 14 + 2H

Shen, Heather and Aldo served a total of 57 orders

S + A + H = 57

Slot in the values of S and A

(14 + 2H) + (7 + H) + H = 57

14 + 2H + 7 + H + H = 57

Collect like terms

14 + 7 + 2H + H + H = 57

21 + 4H = 57

4H = 57 - 21

4H = 36

H = 9

Substitute the value of eq 2

A = 7 + H

A = 7 + 9

A = 16

Substitute the value of A in eq 1

S = 2A

S = 2(16)

S = 32

Therefore, Shen served 32 orders, Aldo served 16 orders and Heather served 9 orders
