2x + 3 /12 = 2x/8
⇒ 48x/24 + 6/24 = 6x/24
⇒ (48x+ 6)/24= 6x/24
⇒ 48x+ 6 = 6x
⇒ 48x- 6x= -6
⇒ 42x= -6
⇒ x= -6/42
⇒ x= -1/7
<span>
x=-1/7~</span>

You can say : 3/12 = 2x/8 - 2x ⇒ ( 1/4 = 2x/8 - 2x ) *8 ⇒ 2 = 2x - 16x ⇒ 2 = -14x
so x = 2/-14 = -1/7 the answer is : x = -1/7 :))
i hope this be helpful

Consider the following equation: f(x)=x^2+4\4x^2-4x-8 name the vertical asymptote(s)

zhenek [66]

ANSWER

The vertical asymptotes are

$\Rightarrow x=2\:or\:x=-1$

<u>EXPLANATION</u>

We have

$f(x)=\frac{x^2+4}{4x^2-4x-8}$

For vertical asymptotes we set the denominator to zero and solve the quadratic equation;

$4x^2-4x-8=0$

$\Rightarrow x^2-x-2=0$

We split the middle term to obtain,

$x^2+x-2x-2=0$

$\Rightarrow x(x+1)-2(x+1)=0$

$\Rightarrow (x-2)(x+1)=0$

$\Rightarrow x=2\:or\:x=-1$

Therefore the vertical asymptotes are

$x=2\:or\:x=-1$

Lonnie plans to join the gym. He must pay a $35 membership fee. He will

mash [69]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope will be the constant amount that the cost increases by each month.

In this situation, 5 is the slope, because he has to pay $5 each month.

35 is not the slope, and is instead the y intercept. This is because this is the cost at 0 months, since it is the membership fee.

So, the correct answer is 5.
