x^2 - 36

-----------    = (x - 6)(x + 6) /  4(x - 6)

4x - 24

When x =  6 the denominator = 0  so the discontinuity is x = 6.

Answer:

Discontinuities of the function is x = 6  .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : f(x) = the quantity x squared minus 36 over the quantity 4x minus 24

To find : What are the discontinuities of the function .

Solution : We have given

f(x) = \frac{x^{2}- 36 }{4x - 24}.

On factoring x^{2}- 36 = (x+6) (x -6)

4x - 24 = 4 ( x -6 ).

Then , f(x) = \frac{(x-6) (x +6) }{4(x -6)}.

f(x) =  \frac{(x-6)(x +6) }{4(x -6)}.

A point of discontinuity occurs when a number is both a zero of the numerator and denominator.

Hence , at x = 6 both numerator and denominator is zero.

Therefore, Discontinuities of the function is x = 6  .

-4y+20=-x solve for y
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

y = x/4 + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for y:

20 - 4 y = -x

Hint: | Isolate terms with y to the left-hand side.

Subtract 20 from both sides:

-4 y = -x - 20

Hint: | Solve for y.

Divide both sides by -4:

Answer: y = x/4 + 5

If f(x) = 2x² + 5, then what is the remainder when f (x) is divided by x – 10?
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 10 = 0

x = 10

f(10) = 2*10² + 5 = 2*100 + 5 = 200 + 5

      = 205

Remainder = 205

Holly has $125 she spends $35 on gas for her car which model represents how much money holly has left idk if the answer is right
inn [45]

Answer:

The second one would be the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you look at the model, it shows it on 125 going down to 90.

If she has $125 and she spends $35 on gas, you would subtract that from how much money she has.

125 - 35 = 90.

Feel free to let me know if you need more help. :)
