Answer: C. Approaches but does not cross

Step-by-step explanation: Basically an asymptote is a line that approaches a given curve which is graph of a function, but it never touches, cross or intersect in any finite. Asymptote can be any line, horizontal, vertical, inclined, which approaches the function graph. Theoretically, according to mathematical principles, the function graph line is approaching to a asymptote at infinity, and therefore the asymptotes are suitable as the type of guide to complete the graph of the function.

Answer:

Option C. approaches but does not cross.

Step-by-step explanation:

In Maths, an asymptote is a line that the graph (a drawing that shows two sets of related amounts) of a function (e.g. x=1/x) approaches but does not cross (or intersect). The image below illustrates such concept.

Help!! I think I got these wrong, so please help!! Thank you!

Answer:

(x+3)(x+4)(x-4)

x+2 and x-3 are not factors but x-4 is

Step-by-step explanation:

let's factor it :)

x^3 + 3x^2 - 16x -48

first we will factor this:

x^3 + 3x^2

x^2(x + 3)

then factor the second part :

- 16x - 48

-16(x + 3)

so now,

x^2(x + 3) - 16(x + 3)

factor out x+3

(x+3)(x^2 - 16)

factor x^2 - 16

(x+3)(x+4)(x-4)

A rectangular swimming pool measures 40 ft by 60 ft and is surrounded by a path of uniform width around the four edges. The peri

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

6ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets x = the width of the path the surrounding path will add 2x to the pool dimension,therefore over all dimesion: (2x+40) by (2x+60) the overall perimeter (2x + 40) + 2(2x+60) = 248 Simplify divide by 2, result (2x+40) +(2x+60) = 124

 Combine like terms 2x + 2x +40 +60 =124 

4x + 100 = 124 

4x=124 = 100

4x=24

x=24/4

x= 6ft is the width of the path

check this by finding the perimeter with these values; 2x = 12 ft 

2 ( 12 + 40 ) + 2( 12 +60 ) 

2( 52 + 2(72)

104 + 144 = 248; confirms our solution of x= 6 ft

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-3, -2)(−3,−2) and (3, 6)(3,6)? Put your answer in fully reduced

il63 [147K]

Answer:

The equation of the line is y = $\frac{4}{3}$ x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the equation that passes through two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is y = m x + b, where

m is the slope of the line whose rule is $m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

b is the y-intercept, you can find it by substituting x, y in the equation by (x1, y1) OR (x2, y2)

Let us solve the question:

∵ The line passes through the points (-3, -2) and (3, 6)

∴ x1 = -3 and x2 = 3

∴ y1 = -2 and y2 = 6

→ Use the rule of m to find it

∵ $m=\frac{6-(-2)}{3-(-3)}=\frac{6+2}{3+3}=\frac{8}{6}$

→ Simplify it by dividing up and down by 2

∴ m = $\frac{4}{3}$

→ Substitute its value in the form of the equation above

∴ y = $\frac{4}{3}$ x + b

→ To find b substitute x and y by x1 and y1

∴ -2 = $\frac{4}{3}$ (-3) + b

∴ -2 = -4 + b

→ Add 4 to both sides

∴ -2 + 4 = -4 + 4 + b

∴ 2 = b

→ Substitute it in the form of the equation

∴ y = $\frac{4}{3}$ x + 2

∴ The equation of the line is y = $\frac{4}{3}$ x + 2
