*Asymptotes* g(x) =2x+1/x-3 Give the domain and x and y intercepts

Mathematics

Answer: Assuming the function is g(x)=\frac{2x+1}{x-3}:

The x-intercept is (\frac{-1}{2},0).

The y-intercept is (0,\frac{-1}{3}).

The horizontal asymptote is y=2.

The vertical asymptote is x=3.

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to assume the function is: g(x)=\frac{2x+1}{x-3} and not g(x)=2x+\frac{1}{x}-3.

So we are looking at g(x)=\frac{2x+1}{x-3}.

The x-intercept is when y is 0 (when g(x) is 0).

Replace g(x) with 0.

0=\frac{2x+1}{x-3}

A fraction is only 0 when it's numerator is 0.  You are really just solving:

0=2x+1

Subtract 1 on both sides:

-1=2x

Divide both sides by 2:

\frac{-1}{2}=x

The x-intercept is (\frac{-1}{2},0).

The y-intercept is when x is 0.

Replace x with 0.

g(0)=\frac{2(0)+1}{0-3}

y=\frac{2(0)+1}{0-3}  

y=\frac{0+1}{-3}

y=\frac{1}{-3}

y=-\frac{1}{3}.

The y-intercept is (0,\frac{-1}{3}).

The vertical asymptote is when the denominator is 0 without making the top 0 also.

So the deliminator is 0 when x-3=0.

Solve x-3=0.

Add 3 on both sides:

x=3

Plugging 3 into the top gives 2(3)+1=6+1=7.

So we have a vertical asymptote at x=3.

Now let's look at the horizontal asymptote.

I could tell you if the degrees match that the horizontal asymptote is just the leading coefficient of the top over the leading coefficient of the bottom which means are horizontal asymptote is y=\frac{2}{1}.  After simplifying you could just say the horizontal asymptote is y=2.

Or!

I could do some division to make it more clear.  The way I'm going to do this certain division is rewriting the top in terms of (x-3).

y=\frac{2x+1}{x-3}=\frac{2(x-3)+7}{x-3}=\frac{2(x-3)}{x-3}+\frac{7}{x-3}

y=2+\frac{7}{x-3}

So you can think it like this what value will y never be here.

7/(x-3) will never be 0 because 7 will never be 0.

So y will never be 2+0=2.

The horizontal asymptote is y=2.

(Disclaimer: There are some functions that will cross over their horizontal asymptote early on.)

A specialty store sells items that are priced at exactly $3, $5, or $10. The store manager figures that 16% of inventory is pric
Elza [17]

Answer:

$7.28

Step-by-step explanation:

The average price, or the expected price, of any item in this specialty store is given by the weighted average of each item's price. That is, the sum of the products of each individual price by its corresponding sales mix:

AP =(0.16*\$3)+(0.32*\$5)+(0.52*\$10)\\AP=\$7.28

The average price of any item in the store is $7.28

Taya2010 [7]

The solution to the inequalities x + 8y ≤ 50, x ≤ 30, y > 2 is the darker region shown on the graph.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

Let x represent the number of individual songs and y represent the number of albums, hence:

x + 8y ≤ 50   (1)

x ≤ 30    (2)

y > 2   (3)

The solution to the inequalities x + 8y ≤ 50, x ≤ 30, y > 2 is the darker region shown on the graph.

Can someone help me with this Im not sure if My answer is correct
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

y = 2x - 3

Yes, your answer is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the slope of the two points by using the slope formula:

        y2 - y1

m = -------------

        x2 - x1

         13 - 5

m = -------------

          8 - 4

         8

m = ------- = 2

         4

To find the y-intercept, plug in values into the slope-intercept formula:

y = mx + b

Where m = slope and b= y-intercept. Use any one of the points. I'll be using (4,5):

5 = (2) (4) + b

5 = 8 + b

-3 = b

b = -3

So, putting everything into the slope intercept formula:

y = 2x - 3
