For the function y=400-22x, what is the rate of change

Answer:

-22

Step-by-step explanation:

The function y=400-22x is a linear equation in the form y=mx + b. Although they put "mx" after "b" so the equation doesn't start with a negative.

"m" is rate of change, or the slope if graphed.

The negative means "y" decreases as "x" increases. On a graph, it decreases left to right.

Determine the vertical asymptote for the rational function f(x) = x - 4 over 2x - 3

k0ka [10]

Answer:

x = $\frac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = $\frac{x-4}{2x-3}$

The denominator cannot be zero as this would make f(x) undefined.

Equating the denominator to zero and solving gives the value that x cannot be and if the numerator is non zero for this value then it is a vertical asymptote.

2x - 3 = 0 ⇒ 2x = 3 ⇒ x = $\frac{3}{2}$

Thus x = $\frac{3}{2}$ is the vertical asymptote
