At what point is the function y=(x+3)/(x^(2)-7x+12) continuous

If a function is defined as

h(x)=\dfrac{f(x)}{g(x)}

where both f(x),g(x) are continuous functions, then h(x) is also continuous where defined, i.e. where g(x)\neq0

So, in your case, this function is continous everywhere, except where

x^2-7x+12=0

To solve this equation, we can use the formula x^2-sx+p=0

It means that, if the leading terms is 1, then the x coefficient is the opposite of the sum of the roots, and the constant term is the product of the roots.

So, we're looking for two terms whose sum is 7, and whose product is 12. These numbers are easily found to be 3 and 4.

So, this function is continuous for every real number different than 3 or 4.

Grace weighed 167 pounds before she started her exercise program.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Weight lost by Grace = 45 pounds

Weight of Grace after exercise weeks = 122 pounds

Let,

x represents the weight of Grace before she started the exercise program.

Loss means subtraction, therefore,

We will subtract the lost weight from original weight.

Original weight - Weight lost = Weight after exercise weeks

x-45=122

Adding 45 on both sides

x-45+45=122+45\\x=167\ pounds

Grace weighed 167 pounds before she started her exercise program.
