The behavior of the function around its vertical asymptote at 

Expand the numerator

Factorize

Factor out x + 1

We test the function using values close to -2 (one value will be less than -2 while the other will be greater than -2)
We are only interested in the sign of the result
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As x approaches -2 implies that:
Say x = -3


We have a negative value (-12); This will be called negative infinity
This implies that as x approaches -2, p(x) approaches negative infinity

Take note of the superscript of 2 (this implies that, we approach 2 from a value less than 2)
As x leaves -2 implies that: 
Say x = -2.1

We have a negative value (-56.1); This will be called negative infinity
This implies that as x leaves -2, p(x) approaches negative infinity

So, the behavior is:
and as 
Let x = number of adult tickets, and y = number of children tickets. One equation must deal with the number of tickets, and the other equation must deal with the revenue from the tickets.
Then x + y = 300 is the number of tickets
12x + 8y = 3280 is the revenue from the tickets.
Using the substitution method:
x + y = 300 ⇒ y = 300 - x ⇒ Equation (3)
12x + 8y = 3280 ⇒ 12x + 8(300-x) = 3280 ⇒ x = 220
y = 300 - x ⇒ y = 300-220 ⇒ 80
Therefore 220 adult tickets and 80 children's tickets were sold.
Answer:
3^15/5^16
Step-by-step explanation:
(3^3 x 3^6 x 5^-4) / (3^-6 x 5^12)
= (3^3 x 3^6 x 3^6) / (5^12 x 5^4)
= 3^15 / 5^16
