Suppose the polynomial function below represents the power generated by a wind turbine, where x represents the wind speed in met
ers per second and y represents the kilowatts generated. Interpret ƒ(10). f(x) = 0.08x^3 + x^2 + x + 0.26

Answer:
<em>f(10) or the power generated by the wind turbine at the wind speed of 10 m/s is </em><em>190.26 kW</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
The given polynomial function is,
where,
x represents the wind speed in meters per second,
y represents the kilowatts generated.
Putting x=10, we can get the value of f(10).
So,
Therefore,at x=10 or when the wind speed is 10 m/s, then y or the power generated by the wind turbine will be 190.26 kW

Answer: Choice A) There must be a vertical asymptote at x = c
Explanation:
The first limit says that as x approaches c from the left side, the f(x) or y values approach negative infinity. So the graph goes down forever as x approaches this c value from the left side.
The limit means that as x approaches c from the right side, the y values head off to positive infinity.
Either of these facts are enough to conclude that we have a vertical asymptote at x = c. We can think of it like an electric fence in which we can get closer to, but not actually touch it.
