Identify the horizontal asymptote of f(x)=x^2+6x-9 over x-2

lora16 [44]

$\bf \cfrac{x^2+6x-9}{x-2}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
x^2\impliedby \textit{has a degree of 2}\\
x^1\impliedby \textit{has a degree of 1}
\end{cases}$

if the degree of the expression of the numerator is greater than that of the denominator, the rational expression has no horizontal asymptote.

A biology class has a total of 35 students. The number of females is 11 less than the number of males. How many males and how ma

lord [1]

Answer:

23 males and 12 females

Step-by-step explanation:

x = # of females

y = # of males

x + y = 35

x + x + 11 = 35

2x + 11 =35 (SUBTRACT 11 FROM BOTH SIDES)

2x = 24 (DIVIDE BOTH SIDES BY 2)

x = 12 females

x + y =35

12 + y = 35 (SUBTRACT 12 FROM BOTH SIDES)

y = 23 males

23 males + 12 females = 35 students

Since 4 peaches x 2 =8, you would would only be able to buy 6 mangos since $1.25 x 6 mangos =$7.5 so it would be $7.5+$8=$15.5 and 6 mangos+4 peaches=10 in total. And he would also save $5.00! :)

Please mark brainliest!

Hope it helps!
