Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

METHOD 1:

The formula of a distance between two points:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Substitute the coordinates of the given points (-4, 6) and (9, 6):

$d=\sqrt{(9-(-4))^2+(6-6)^2}=\sqrt{(9+4)^2+0^2}=\sqrt{13^2}=13$

METHOD 2:

We can see that the second coordinates of the points (ordinate) are the same. Therefore, they lie on a horizontal line. The distance between them is the distance between the x coordinates (abscissa).

The formula of a distance between two numbers:

$d=|b-a|$

We have

$a=-4,\ b=9$

Substitute:

$d=|9-(-4)|=|9+4|=|13|=13$

Which is the interval notation represent the domain?

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

The first choice, $(-\infty, 7) \cup (7, \infty)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The dashed vertical line is a vertical asymptote. The x-coordinate of all points on this vertical asymptote are equal to 7. In other words, when the x-value of a point on the graph approaches $7$ , its y-value approaches infinity (or negative infinity.)

Either way, the graph is not defined for $x = 7$ . The point $7$ should thus be excluded from the domain of the graph.

The graph is apparently defined for all other x-values. The domain of the function should thus be all real numbers with the exception of $x = 7$ . Here's how to write that in interval notation:

The set of all real numbers can be expressed as the interval $(-\infty, \infty)$ . Note that infinity $\infty$ (or $(- \infty)$ itself isn't a real number. The round brackets indicate that both endpoints are excluded from the from the interval.
The set of all real numbers less than (not equal to) $7$ is $(-\infty,7 )$ (both ends are excluded.) The set of all real numbers greater than (not equal to) $7$ is $(7, \infty)$ .
The set of all real numbers that is not equal to $7$ is the union of all real numbers less than $7$ and all real numbers greater than $7$ . The union operator $\cup$ connects two intervals.
