When Jasmine started jogging, she ran 3/4 mile on the first day, 1 1/8 mile on the second day, and 1 1/2 mile on the third day.

If she increased the distance she jogged each day by the same amount, how far did she jog on the fifth day?

Answer:

The answer to your question is 2 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

First day = 3/4

Second day = 1 1/8

Third day = 1 1/2

Process

1.- Find the difference between the distances

          1 1/8 - 3/4  =  (8 + 1)/8 - 3/4  

                            = 9/8 - 3/4

                            = (9 - 6)/8

                            = 3/8

         1 1/2 - 1 1/8 = (2 + 1)/2 - (8 + 1)/8

                           = 3/2 + 9/8

                           = (12 + 9) / 8

                           = 3/8

2.- Find the distance she ran the fifth day

5th = 1 1/2 + 3/8 + 3/8

       = 3/2 + 3/8 + 3/8

       = 12/8 + 3/8 + 3/8

       = 18/8

       = 9/4

      = 2 1/4

Show all work to identify the asymptotes and state the end behavior of the function f(x)=5x/x-25
Nina [5.8K]

Using the asymptote concept, it is found that:

  • The vertical asymptote is of x = 25.
  • The horizontal asymptote is of y = 5.
  • Considering the horizontal asymptote, it is found that the end behavior of the function is that it tends to y = 5 to the left and to the right of the graph.

<h3>What are the asymptotes of a function f(x)?</h3>

  • The vertical asymptotes are the values of x which are outside the domain, which in a fraction are the zeroes of the denominator.
  • The horizontal asymptote is the value of f(x) as x goes to infinity, as long as this value is different of infinity.

In this problem, the function is:

f(x) = \frac{5x}{x - 25}

Considering the denominator, the vertical asymptote is:

x - 25 = 0 -> x = 25.

The horizontal asymptote is found as follows:

y = \lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} f(x) = \lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} \frac{5x}{x - 25} = \lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} \frac{5x}{x} = \lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} 5 = 5

Hence the end behavior of the function is that it tends to y = 5 to the left and to the right of the graph.

rjkz [21]

Answer: 30 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Cross multiply:

6 : 3.5

x : 17.5

Then divide 105 with 3.5x.

105/3.5x = 30
