What are the x and y-intercepts of the line described by this equation? -6x+3y=18.9?

1 answer:

5 0

The "x" intercept is found when you plug in "0" for "y"
-6x + 3(0) = 18.9
-6x = 18.9 (Divide both sides by -6)
x = - 3.15
(-3.15, 0) is your x-intercept

Now plug in "0" for the x
-6(0) + 3y = 18.9
3y = 18.9 (Divide both sides by 3)
y = 6.3
(0, 6.3) is your y - intercept

What is the horizontal asymptote of f(x)=-2x/x+1<br> A.-2<br> B.-1<br> C.0<br> D.1

Mrrafil [7]

A horizontal asymptote of a function f(x) is given by y = lim f(x) as x --> ∞ and x --> –∞. In this case,
$\lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{-2x}{x+1} = \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{-2x}{x(1+ \frac{1}{x} )}\\
=\lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{-2}{1+ \frac{1}{x} }\\
= -2
$

Thus, the horizontal asymptote of f(x) is y = –2.

The correct answer is 10+6p

Step-by-step explanation:

The mistake is that for the first step instead of distributing 2 to 3p and 1 they added 8+2 first. your actually supposed to distribute and get, 8+6p+2, then combine like terms and get 10+6p
