Answer:

$1.44

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion and solve -> 0.32/1=x/4.5

Cross multiply -> 1.44=1x

1x is the same as x, so x=1.44

Therefore, 4.5 yards of the ribbon will cost $1.44

You have to consider the “ends” of the x-axis, the far right (for infinitely large values of x) and left (for infinitely small values of x) of the graph.

From the diagram above you can see that:

When $x\rightarrow -\infty,$ then $y=f(x)\rightarrow 1$ (notice that as the values of x get smaller and smaller, the graph gets closer and closer to the line y=1);
When $x\rightarrow \infty,$ then $y=f(x)\rightarrow 1.$ (notice that as the values of x get larger and larger, the graph gets closer and closer to the line y=1).
