I find it easiest to subtract and add the percentages to make a multiplier, then use that.

After the man's discount, he pays (100% - 12%) = 88% of the list price. After tax, he pays (100% + 3%) = 103% of the discounted price.

The amount he actually pays is $255×0.88×1.03 = $231.13.

The best choice is ...
  (B) $231.13

Determine the horizontal, vertical, and slant asymptotes: y=x2+2x-3/x-7
densk [106]

Answer:

  • vertical asymptote: x = 7
  • slant asymptote: y = x+9

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical asymptotes are found where a denominator factor is zero (and there is no corresponding numerator factor to cancel it). Here, that is at x = 7.

There is no horizontal asymptote because the numerator is of higher degree than the denominator.

When you divide the numerator by the denominator, you get ...

  y = (x +9) +60/(x -7)

Then when x gets large, the behavior is governed by the terms not having a denominator: y = x +9. This is the equation of the slant asymptote.
