How do we find x-intercept of rational function

1 answer:

3 0

You can find the x intercept of the equation by setting the value of y to zero and solving the equation. Similarly you can solve the y intercept by setting the value of x to zero and solving the equation. Now while solving this rational function for intercepts if you face a situation where the value in the denominator is zero it implies that there is no intercept in that case as dividing something by zero is indeterminate.

Two cats, Fluffy and Fireball, met in the park. Fluffy's tail is 1/3, of a meter long. Fireball's tail is 1/4 of a meter long.

1/3 - 1/4 = 4/12 - 3/12 = 1/12....Fluffy's tail is 1/12 meters longer then Fireball's tail

$\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & a \\ -1 & -2 \end{matrix} \right] + \left[ \begin{matrix} b & 4 \\ -2 & 1 \end{matrix} \right]$

This addition of matrices can be combined into one matrix.
To add matrices, add the corresponding components of each matrix.

After adding, we'll have the following

$\left[ \begin{matrix} 2+b & a+4 \\ -3 & -1 \end{matrix} \right]$

This matrix should be equal to the matrix on the right-hand side of the equation. This means that each corresponding component of this matrix and the other matrix should be equivalent.

This means that

$2+b=1$
AND
$a+4=0$

Solving these one-step equations will give the values of a = -4 and b = -1. That's answer choice D.
