First, simplify fraction
(x+4)/((x-2)(x+3))
good
set numerator to zero
x+4=0
x=-4

VA
set denom to zero
(x-2)(x+3)=0
VA's at x=-3 and x=2

HA
for p(x)/q(x)
degreee of p(x)<q(x)
HA=0
no slant asymtote
does it cross HA?
0=(x+4)/(x^2+x-6)
0=x+4
-4=x
it crosses at (-4,0)

to graph
plot point (-4,0)
draw assymtotes
y=0
x=2
x=-3

go from top left to middle botttom to top right
reverse 'L' on top left going through (-4,0)
upside down 'U' at middle
'L' at right top

Which polynomial is a quadratic trinomial?

il63 [147K]

<h3>Answer: Choice C</h3>

The largest exponent here is 4, so that makes it a quartic.

There are 3 terms, so we have a trinomial. Each term is separated by either a plus or a minus.

Choice A shows a quartic polynomial. Choice B is a cubic polynomial. Choice d is a quadratic trinomial.

Biologists stocked a lake with 80 fish and estimated the carrying capacity (the maximal population for the fish of that species

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

$P(t) = \frac{160000e^{1.36t}}{2000 + 80(e^{1.36t} - 1)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The logistic equation is the following one:

$P(t) = \frac{KP(0)e^{rt}}{K + P(0)(e^{rt} - 1)}$

In which P(t) is the size of the population after t years, K is the carrying capacity of the population, r is the decimal growth rate of the population and P(0) is the initial population of the lake.

In this problem, we have that:

Biologists stocked a lake with 80 fish and estimated the carrying capacity (the maximal population for the fish of that species in that lake) to be 2,000. This means that $P(0) = 80, K = 2000$ .
