Find the sum

Mathematics
1 answer:
lakkis [162]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Numerator = 2(b^2+a^2)    or equivalently 2b^2+2a^2

Denominator = (b+a)^2*(b-a), or equivalently b^3+ab^2-a^2b0-a^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

S = 2b/(b+a)^2 + 2a/(b^2-a^2)   factor denominator

= 2b/(b+a)^2 + 2a/((b+a)(b-a))     factor denominators

= 1/(b+a) ( 2b/(b+a) + 2a/(b-a))    find common denominator

= 1/(b+a) ((2b*(b-a) + 2a*(b+a))/((b+a)(b-a))   expand

= 1/(b+a)(2b^2-2ab+2ab+2a^2)/((b+a)(b-a))  simplify & factor

= 2/(b+a)(b^2+a^2)/((b+a)(b-a))  simplify & rearrange

= 2(b^2+a^2)/((b+a)^2(b-a))

Numerator = 2(b^2+a^2)    or equivalently 2b^2+2a^2

Denominator = (b+a)^2*(b-a), or equivalently b^3+ab^2-a^2b0-a^3

What are the equations of the asymptotes of the graph of f(x)=(5/x+7)−8 ?
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

\mathrm{Vertical}:\:x=0,\:\mathrm{Horizontal}:\:y=-1

The graph of the function is also attached.

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the expression

\:f\left(x\right)=\left(\frac{5}{x}+7\right)-8\:\:

\mathrm{Simplify}\:\frac{5}{x}+7-8:\quad \frac{5}{x}-1

\mathrm{Vertical\:asymptotes\:of\:}\frac{5}{x}-1:

Go over every undefined point x = a and check if at least one of the following statement is true.

\lim _{x\to a^-}f\left(x\right)=\pm \infty

\lim _{x\to a^+}f\left(x\right)=\pm \infty

\mathrm{Take\:the\:denominator\left(s\right)\:of\:}\frac{5}{x}-1\mathrm{\:and\:compare\:to\:zero}

x=0

The following points are undefined

x=0

\mathrm{The\:vertical\:asymptotes\:are:}

x=0

\mathrm{Horizontal\:Asymptotes\:of\:}\frac{5}{x}-1:

\mathrm{Check\:if\:at\:}x\to \pm \infty \mathrm{\:the\:function\:}y=\frac{5}{x}-1\mathrm{\:behaves\:as\:a\:line,\:}y=mx+b

\mathrm{Find\:an\:asymptote\:for\:}x\to -\infty \::

\lim _{x\to -\infty \:}\frac{f\left(x\right)}{x}=\lim _{x\to -\infty \:}\frac{\frac{5}{x}-1}{x}=0

\lim _{x\to -\infty \:}f\left(x\right)-mx=\lim _{x\to -\infty \:}\frac{5}{x}-1-0x=-1

y=-1

\mathrm{Find\:an\:asymptote\:for\:}x\to \infty:

\lim _{x\to \infty \:}\frac{f\left(x\right)}{x}=\lim _{x\to \infty \:}\frac{\frac{5}{x}-1}{x}=0

\lim _{x\to \infty \:}f\left(x\right)-mx=\lim _{x\to \infty \:}\frac{5}{x}-1-0x=-1

y=-1

\mathrm{The\:horizontal\:asymptote\:is:}

y=-1

Therefore,

\mathrm{Vertical}:\:x=0,\:\mathrm{Horizontal}:\:y=-1

The graph of the function is also attached.
