What are the vertical asymptotes of the function f(x) =5x+5/x2 + x-2

Mathematics

let's recall that the vertical asymptotes for a rational expression occur when the denominator is at 0, so let's zero out this one and check.

\bf \cfrac{5x+5}{x^2+x-2}\qquad \stackrel{\textit{zeroing out the denominator}~\hfill }{x^2+x-2=0\implies (x+2)(x-1)=0}\implies \stackrel{\textit{vertical asymptotes}}{ \begin{cases} x=-2\\ x=1 \end{cases}}

lions [1.4K]
The answer would be C (P=T/2). This can be explained by examining the ratio. If you were to put in the answer of T = 12, then you would be looking for T/2 or 6, assuming we're giving them each half of the amount original held by grandmother.

A bag of marbles contains 6 bluemarbles, 2 yeloow marbles, 4 red marbles, and 1 green marble. What is the [robability of reachin
irina [24]

Answer:

The probability of picking a yellow marble is 2/13

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we need to know the total number of marbles that are in the bag. To do this, we will have to add up all the marble colors together.

This will give us 6 + 2 +4+ 1 = 13 marbles in total.

The next step is to find the number of yellow marbles in the bag.

We can get this from the question. There are 2 yellow marbles in the bag.

The probability of selecting a yellow marble can be obtained by dividing the number of yellow marbles by the total number of marbles in the bag

This will give us 2/13.

Therefore, the probability of picking a yellow marble is 2/13

A car travels 17 miles on one gallon of gas
zmey [24]

When x =170, y =10, when x = 187, y = 1, when x = 204, y = 12, when x = 221, y = 13, when x = 238, y = 14, when x = 255, y = 15, when x = 272, y = 16, when x = 289, y = 17, when x = 306, y = 18, when x = 323, y = 19, when x = 340, y = 20,

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; Assume y is the gallons in the tank while x is the range of the car. We need to determine the equation relating the y to the x values in the given coordinates. x is the dependent value whereas y is the independent value i.e. the value of x depends on the value of y.

Step 2; As y increases, x also increases. For every extra gallon in the tank, the car can go another 17 miles. So with y as the amount of gas in the tank in gallons and x as the range of vehicle, we get;

x = 17y, this represents the relation between x and y.

To find the gallons in the tank, y = \frac{x}{17},

For x = 170, y = \frac{170}{17} = 10,

Similarly equating the values we get that when x = 187, y = 11,

when x = 204, y = 12,

when x = 221, y = 13,

when x = 238, y = 14,

when x = 255, y = 15,

when x = 272, y = 16,

when x = 289, y = 17,

when x = 306, y = 18,

when x = 323, y = 19,

when x = 340, y = 20,

You deposit $800 in an account that earns simple interest at an annual rate of 5%.
S_A_V [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

$800 × 5% = $40

for 1 year, I earn $40

100 ÷ 40 = 2 remainder 2

Therefore I would have to leave the money in for at least 3 years to earn $100
