This is the manipulated variable in an experiment or study whose presence or degree determines the change in the dependent varia

ble. When graphed this is graphed usually on the horizontal axis.

Answer:

This is called the independent variable.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know this because it is independent of all outside factors. Additionally, the horizontal axis (also known as the x axis), is the axis known for the independent variable.

Can some one please help me

Lesechka [4]

Let's say you only have three points: A, B, and C.
The first step is asking you to construct a parallel of AB through C. You should start by placing a ruler connecting points A and B, then use a set square and rest it on the ruler that's connecting points A and B. Slide the set square over the ruler so it meets point C. Measure at which distance is point C. Then slide the set square to one or another side of the ruler and mark a new point with the same distance of point C from AB. Now connect points C and the new one by tracing a line that passes on both points. That line will be parallel to AB.
Now repeat the process for the other parallels. By the end, you should have three lines that when extend cross each other and form a triangle.

Enter a counterexample for the conclusion. If x is a prime number, then x + 1 is not a prime number. A counterexample is x = .

You can say x=2

Ples help me find slant assemtotes

FrozenT [24]

A polynomial asymptote is a function $p(x)$ such that

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\pm\infty}(f(x)-p(x))=0$

$(y+1)^2=4xy\implies y(x)=2x-1\pm2\sqrt{x^2-x}$

Since this equation defines a hyperbola, we expect the asymptotes to be lines of the form $p(x)=ax+b$ .

Ignore the negative root (we don't need it). If $y=2x-1+2\sqrt{x^2-x}$ , then we want to find constants $a,b$ such that

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty}(2x-1+2\sqrt{x^2-x}-ax-b)=0$

We have

$\sqrt{x^2-x}=\sqrt{x^2}\sqrt{1-\dfrac1x}$
$\sqrt{x^2-x}=|x|\sqrt{1-\dfrac1x}$
$\sqrt{x^2-x}=x\sqrt{1-\dfrac1x}$

since $x\to\infty$ forces us to have $x>0$ . And as $x\to\infty$ , the $\dfrac1x$ term is "negligible", so really $\sqrt{x^2-x}\approx x$ . We can then treat the limand like

$2x-1+2x-ax-b=(4-a)x-(b+1)$

which tells us that we would choose $a=4$ . You might be tempted to think $b=-1$ , but that won't be right, and that has to do with how we wrote off the "negligible" term. To find the actual value of $b$ , we have to solve for it in the following limit.

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty}(2x-1+2\sqrt{x^2-x}-4x-b)=0$

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty}(\sqrt{x^2-x}-x)=\frac{b+1}2$

We write

$(\sqrt{x^2-x}-x)\cdot\dfrac{\sqrt{x^2-x}+x}{\sqrt{x^2-x}+x}=\dfrac{(x^2-x)-x^2}{\sqrt{x^2-x}+x}=-\dfrac x{x\sqrt{1-\frac1x}+x}=-\dfrac1{\sqrt{1-\frac1x}+1}$

Now as $x\to\infty$ , we see this expression approaching $-\dfrac12$ , so that

$-\dfrac12=\dfrac{b+1}2\implies b=-2$

So one asymptote of the hyperbola is the line $y=4x-2$ .

The other asymptote is obtained similarly by examining the limit as $x\to-\infty$ .

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to-\infty}(2x-1+2\sqrt{x^2-x}-ax-b)=0$

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to-\infty}(2x-2x\sqrt{1-\frac1x}-ax-(b+1))=0$

Reduce the "negligible" term to get

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to-\infty}(-ax-(b+1))=0$

Now we take $a=0$ , and again we're careful to not pick $b=-1$ .

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to-\infty}(2x-1+2\sqrt{x^2-x}-b)=0$

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to-\infty}(x+\sqrt{x^2-x})=\frac{b+1}2$

$(x+\sqrt{x^2-x})\cdot\dfrac{x-\sqrt{x^2-x}}{x-\sqrt{x^2-x}}=\dfrac{x^2-(x^2-x)}{x-\sqrt{x^2-x}}=\dfrac
 x{x-(-x)\sqrt{1-\frac1x}}=\dfrac1{1+\sqrt{1-\frac1x}}$

This time the limit is $\dfrac12$ , so

$\dfrac12=\dfrac{b+1}2\implies b=0$

which means the other asymptote is the line $y=0$ .
