Each of the linear factors occurs precisely once, so the sign of the given rational expression will change at each of the points where one of the linear factors is zero. That is at:
x
=
−
3
,
−
1
,
2
,
4
Note that when
x
is large, the
x
2
terms will dominate the values of the numerator and denominator, making both positive.
Hence the sign of the value of the rational expression in each of the intervals
(
−
∞
,

)

(

and
(

)
follows the pattern

. Hence the intervals
(

)
and
(

,

)
are both part of the solution set.
When
x
=
−
1
or
x
=
4
, the denominator is zero so the rational expression is undefined. Since the numerator is non-zero at those values, the function will have vertical asymptotes at those points (and not satisfy the inequality).
When
x
=
−
3
or
x
=
2
, the numerator is zero and the denominator is non-zero. So the function will be zero and satisfy the inequality at those points.
Hence the solution is:
x

[
−

,
−

)
∪
[

Answer:
380.832 pounds Approximately
Step-by-step explanation:
1 foot of water = 62.428 pounds (62.43)
6.1* 62.43= 380.832
<u>Answer:</u>
29 years
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
- Given the function
, where x stands for the number of years since the material was put into the vault, we can plug 140 into x to find the amount leftover. - Another way of doing this is to change the function to
which are equivalent functions, and then plug 140 into x. This function is helpful if you also needed to find the rate. - I'll use the 1st function because the question doesn't ask for the rate
From here I'll just use a calculator & get 28.7, or 29 years.
