\bf f(x)=\cfrac{5}{x+7}+6\implies f(x)=\cfrac{5+6(x+7)}{x+7}\implies f(x)=\cfrac{6x+47}{1x+7}


to get the vertical asymptotes, we simply zero out the denominator and see what's the equation so let's do so

x + 7 = 0............. x = -7....... that's the vertical asymptote.


to get the horizontal asymptotes, there are 3 cases

if the denominator's degree is higher, or lower or the exactly the same as the degree of the numerator.

well, notice the rational, the degree of the numerator is just 1, 6x¹, and the degree of the denominator is also 1, 1x¹.

when that occurs, the horizontal asymptote occurrs at the fraction of their leading term coefficients.


\bf f(x)=\cfrac{6x+47}{1x+7}~\hspace{10em}\stackrel{\textit{horizontal asymptote}}{y=\cfrac{6}{1}}\implies y=6 \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ ~\hfill \stackrel{V~asymptote}{x=-7}\qquad \stackrel{H~asymptote}{y=6}~\hfill

Answer:

vertical asymptote at x = 7

horizontal asymptote at y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The denominator of f(x) cannot be zero as this would make f(x) undefined. Equating the denominator to zero and solving gives the value that x cannot be and if the numerator is non-zero for this value then it is a vertical asymptote.


solve:  

x − 7 = 0 ⇒ x = 7  is the asymptote

Horizontal asymptotes occur as

lim ,f(x)→ c(a constant)

x → ± ∞

divide terms on numerator/denominator by x

f ( x ) = 5/ x +6= 5 /x + 6

x/ x − 7 /x      1 − 7/ x

as   x ± ∞ , f ( x ) → 0 +6

                1 − 0

⇒ y = 6  is the asymptote

graph{((5)/(x-7))+6 [-20, 20, -10, 10]}

I don't understand number 8
Norma-Jean [14]
Let's try plugging in some negative numbers. Let's do x=-1. 5+-1=4. So we know that if we put in a negative number for x, then n will be positive. But what if we do a number greater than -5, because 5+-5=0. So let's try x=-6. So 5+(-6)=-1. Hmm. So here it is. We know that any number under -5 will be positive and any number above -5 will be negative.

It costs $5.15 to rent a kayak for 1 hour at a local state park. The price per hour stays the same for up to 5 hours of rental.
iren [92.7K]

5.15 x 5 = 25.75

25.75 + 3.75 = 29.5

So your answer is $29.50

Hope it helps! :D

You want to estimate the probability that a lightbulb of a famous brand will last more than 6.500 hours. You choose 10,000 bulbs
brilliants [131]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The likelihood function to estimate this probability can be written as:

mat[1000, 9800]p9580(1 - p)420

(b) The value of the maximum likelihood estimate of the probability 0.958(By taking log of expression in (a) above)

(c) when the true probability is 98%, then it implies that 9800 of 10,000 bulbs did last over 6500hours.

Therefore, the likelihood is p(9800) = mat[10000, 9800]p9800(1 - p)200

(d) Method of moments estimate is the estimation of all the parameters of the population sample.

(e) The statement is FALSE because estimates by the method of moments are not necessarily sufficient statistics, because sometimes fail to take into account all relevant information in the sample. As in the above question
