Use a proportion.

3 counselors to 24 campers equals x counselors to 40 campers.

3/24 = x/40

1/8 = x/40

x = 1/8 * 40

x = 5

Answer: 5

P(x) =x and q(x) = x-1Given:minimum x and Maximum x: -9.4 and 9.4minimum y and maximum y: -6.2 and 6.2Using the rational functio
Arte-miy333 [17]

we have the following function

\frac{p(x)}{g(x)}=\frac{x}{x\text{ -1}}

where x is between -9.4 and 9.4 and y is between -6.2 and 6.2.

We will first draw the function

from the graph, we can see that the zeroes are all values of x for which the graph crosses the x -axis

In this case, we see that that the only zero is at x=0.

Now, we have that the asymptotes are lines to which the graph of the function get really close to. On one side, we can see that as x goes to infinity or minus infinity, the values of the function get really close to 1. So the graph has a horizontal asymptote at y=1. Also, we can see that as x gets really close to 1, the graph gets really close to the vertical line x=1. So the graph has a vertical asymptote at x=1.

Recall that the domain of a function is the set of values of x for which the function is defined. From our graph, we can see that graph is not defined when x=1. So the domain of the function is the set of real numbers except x=1. Now, recall that the range of the function is the set of y values of the graph. From the picture we can see that the graph has a y coordinate for every value of y except for y=1. So, this means that the range of the function is the set of real numbers except y=1.

From the graph, we can see that we cannot draw the graph having a continous drawing. That is, imagine we take a pencil and start on one point on the graph on the left side. We can draw the whole graph on the left side, but we cannot draw the graph on the right side without lifting the pencil up. As we have to "lift the pencil up" this means that the graph is not continous

Finally note that as we have a vertical asymptote at x=1 and horizontal asymptote at y=1 we have that when y is 1 or x is 1, the function y=f(x)/g(x) is undefined

Use the given information to find the unknown value:y varies directly as the square of z. When x = 2, then y= 20. Find y when 2
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer

y = 45 when x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

\begin{gathered} \text{Given that y varies directly as the square of x} \\ \text{This implies that there is a positive relationship betwe}en\text{ y and the square of z} \\ \text{Mathematically, this can be expressed as} \\ y\text{ }\propto x^2 \\ To\text{ turn this expression into an equation, we n}eed\text{ to introduce a proportionality constant k} \\ y=kx^2 \\ \text{ According to the question, y = 20 and x = 2} \\ \text{From the above informaion we can find our k} \\ y=kx^2 \\ 20\text{ = k }\cdot2^2 \\ 20\text{ = k }\cdot\text{ 4} \\ \text{Divide both sides by 4} \\ \frac{20}{4}\text{ = }\frac{k\cdot\text{ 4}}{4} \\ k\text{ = 5} \\ \text{ Find y when }x\text{ = 3} \\ y=kx^2 \\ y\text{ = 5 }\cdot(3)^2 \\ y\text{ = 5 }\cdot\text{ 9} \\ y\text{ = 45} \end{gathered}
