Describe the behavior of the function ppp around its vertical asymptote at x=-2x=−2x, equals, minus, 2.

insens350 [35]

Answer:

$x->-2^{-}, p(x)->-\infty$ and as $x->-2^{+}, p(x)->-\infty$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$p(x) = \frac{x^2-2x-3}{x+2}$ -- Missing from the question

Required

The behavior of the function around its vertical asymptote at $x = -2$

$p(x) = \frac{x^2-2x-3}{x+2}$

Expand the numerator

$p(x) = \frac{x^2 + x -3x - 3}{x+2}$

Factorize

$p(x) = \frac{x(x + 1) -3(x + 1)}{x+2}$

Factor out x + 1

$p(x) = \frac{(x -3)(x + 1)}{x+2}$

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:

$x -> -2^{-}$ Say x = -3

$p(x) = \frac{(x -3)(x + 1)}{x+2}$

$p(-3) = \frac{(-3-3)(-3+1)}{-3+2} = \frac{-6 * -2}{-1} = \frac{+12}{-1} = -12$

We have a negative value (-12); This will be called negative infinity

This implies that as x approaches -2, p(x) approaches negative infinity

$x->-2^{-}, p(x)->-\infty$

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: $x>-2$

Say x = -2.1

$p(-2.1) = \frac{(-2.1-3)(-2.1+1)}{-2.1+2} = \frac{-5.1 * -1.1}{-0.1} = \frac{+5.61}{-0.1} = -56.1$

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

$x->-2^{+}, p(x)->-\infty$

So, the behavior is:

$x->-2^{-}, p(x)->-\infty$ and as $x->-2^{+}, p(x)->-\infty$

Lynn and Dawn tossed a coin 60 times and got heads 33 times. What is the experimental probability of tossing heads using Lynn an

Thepotemich [5.8K]

<h3>Answer: 11/20</h3>

They got 33 heads out of 60 tosses, so,

33/60 = 11/20

You divide each part by 3 to reduce the fraction.

4 - 2(x-4)/ 3= 3(2x+5)/2<br>pls answer fast

omeli [17]

Answer:

- (5/22)

Step-by-step explanation:

(12-2x+8)/3 = (6x + 15)/2

(20 - 2x)/3 = ( 6x + 15)/2

Now cross multiplication

40 - 4x = 18x + 45

-18x - 4x = 45- 40

- 22x = 5

x = - ( 5/22)

a jar contains 36 marbles. it has 20 red, 12 black, and 4 green marbles. two marbles are drawn; the first is not returned before

Igoryamba

P(red) first drawn:
20/36=5/9
P(red) second drawn:
19/35

95/315 or 19/63. As a result, the probability that both marbles are red is 19/63. Hope it help!
