Paraphin [41]3 years ago

Answer:

x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that, a slant or oblique asymptote of a rational function is the asymptote that helps in determining the direction of the function.

It occurs when the polynomial in the numerator is a higher degree than the polynomial in the denominator.

Now, we divide the numerator by denominator using long division method and the first two terms in the quotient ( forming a linear function ) is the equation of the oblique asymptote.

We are given the rational function, f(x) = \frac{x^{2}-5x+6}{x-4}.

After dividing we get that, the quotient is x - 1.

Hence, the equation of the oblique asymptote is x-1.

Diana is painting statues. She has 7/8 of a liter of paint remaining Each statue requires 1/16 of a liter of paint. How many sta
nordsb [41]
She can paint 14 statues.

To find this answer, we just need to divide the amount of paint left by the amount of paint per statue.

7/8 divided by 1/16 is 14. To divide fractions remember it is easier to multiply by the reciprocal.
