I believe the answer is b
Assuming that both triangles are an exact copy of one another, it is safe to assume that 3y-7 is equal to 41. Set up an equation
3y-7=41
Add 7 to both sides
3y=48
Divide both sides by 3
y=16
Now to find PN.
Based on what we know, we can assume that MP = PN. Let's make some equations!
MP = 17x-8 PN = 11x+4
17x-8 = 11x+4
Subtract 11x from both sides
6x-8 = 4
Add 8 to both sides
6x = 12
Divide by 2
x=2
Substitute 2 in for x in the equation for PN
11(2)+4
Multiply 11 by 2
22+4 = 26
PN = 26
14/8 = 1.75
The scale factor is 1.75 because 8* 1.75 = 14
An asymptote is a vertical horizontal or oblique line to which the graph of a function progressively approaches without ever touching it.
To answer this question we observe the graph. All the values of x and y must be identified for which the graph of the function tends to infinity.
It is observed that these values are:
x = -1
x = 3
y = 0
The first two corresponds to the equations of a vertical line. The third corresponds to horizontal line, the axis of x. It can be seen that although the graph of the function is very close to these values, it never "touches" them
