<h3>Short Answer: Yes, the horizontal shift is represented by the vertical asymptote</h3>

A bit of further explanation:

The parent function is y = 1/x which is a hyperbola that has a vertical asymptote overlapping the y axis perfectly. Its vertical asymptote is x = 0 as we cannot divide by zero. If x = 0 then 1/0 is undefined.

Shifting the function h units to the right (h is some positive number), then we end up with 1/(x-h) and we see that x = h leads to the denominator being zero. So the vertical asymptote is x = h

For example, if we shifted the parent function 2 units to the right then we have 1/x turn into 1/(x-2). The vertical asymptote goes from x = 0 to x = 2. This shows how the vertical asymptote is very closely related to the horizontal shifting.

Measure (7x+1) (2x+1)
Gemiola [76]

Smaller angle = 41°

Larger angle = 139°

Step-by-step explanation:

(7x - 1) + (2x + 1) = 180

7x + 2x - 1 + 1 = 180

9x = 180

x = 20

  • The measure of the smaller angle is

2x + 1

= 2(20) + 1

= 40 + 1

<u>= 41°</u>

  • The measure of the larger angle is

7x - 1

= 7(20) - 1

= 140 - 1

<u>= 139°</u>

Answer:x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 4 to both sides and get 3x=5+4

Simplify 5+4 to 9 and get 3x=9

Divide both sides by 3 and get x=9/3

Simplify 9/3 to 3 and get the answer x=3
