Y=0 would be a horizontal line.  An asymptote is a line that a function approaches, but never reaches.  Exponential functions such as these are a smooth curve.  If both numbers are positive numbers greater than or equal to 1, the curve increases.  If at least one of the numbers is a positive number between 0 and 1, the curve decreases.  If <em>a</em> is a negative number, the curve decreases as well.  If either <em>a</em> or <em>b</em> is zero, then the graph would stay constant at 0.  However, as long as neither <em>a</em> nor <em>b</em> is zero, then this graph will never touch that point.  The only way to get an answer of y=0 is to multiply by 0.  If neither <em>a</em> nor <em>b</em> is zero, this won't happen.

Which of the following rational number between 3/7 and 7/8 ?
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways to do this. You could use your calculator to find out the decimal numbers that are equivalent to the two given fractions. Then check which one of the givens falls between these two numbers. I wouldn't do it that way -- not when you are told that the answer has 56 as the denominator.  So ...

The best way to do it is to change the two givens so that they have a denominator of 56

3/7 = 3*8/7*8 = 24 / 56

7*7 / 7*8 = 49 / 46

So you need a number that is between 49 and 24

There is only one 27 / 56

Answer quick find the coordinates
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

  (-4, -3), (4, -1), (8, 0), (12, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The x- and corresponding y-values are listed in the table. Put each pair in parentheses, <em>x-value first</em>. (That is an <em>ordered pair</em>.)

  (x, y) = (-4, -3) . . . . from the first table entry

  (x, y) = (4, -1) . . . . from the second table entry

  (x, y) = (8, 0) . . . . from the third table entry

  (x, y) = (12, 1) . . . . from the last table entry
