Mathematics

Bingel [31]3 years ago

The expression can be written in simplified form as:

f(x)= \frac{5x+10}{ x^{2} +7x+10}  \\  \\ 
f(x)= \frac{5(x+2)}{ x^{2} +2x+5x+10} \\  \\ 
f(x)= \frac{5(x+2)}{(x+2)(x+5)}

x+2 occurs in both numerator and denominator. This means there is a hole at x=-2, this can also be seen from the graph.

So, the vertical asymtptote will occur at the point where:
x+5=0
⇒
x = -5

So, option A gives the correct equation of the vertical asymptote of the function

The answer is the first option, which is:

 x=-5

 The explanation is shown below:

1.To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

 2. You must factor the denominator, as following:

 f(x)=(5x+10)/(x^2+7x+10)
 f((x)=(5x+10)/(x+2)(x+5)

 x+5=0
 x=-5

The legs of a right triangle measure 5 inches and 7 inches of theta is the angle between the 7-inch leg and the hypotenuse, sin
levacccp [35]
Sine (theta) = 5 / hypotenuse
We do not know the hypotenuse length, so let's use the tangent function.
tan (theta) = 5/7
arc tan (5/7) =  35.538 Degrees

Greenfield village is spread across 240 acres of land. Only 37% of the land is used for the exhibits, while the rest of the land
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

The land which are used for exhibits are <u>89 acres</u> (approximately).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Village is spread across 240 acres of land. 37%  of land is used for the exhibits.

Now, we have to find acres of land which are used for exhibits.

So, here it is given that land used for exhibits is 37%, and we have to calculate the quantity from the percentage given:

According to question:

37% of 240 acres of land.

\frac{37}{100}\times 240

0.37\times 240

88.80

So, the land used for exhibits are 88.80 acres.

Therefore, the land which are used for exhibits are <u>89 acres </u>(approximately).
