Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes, it's reasonable.
What you are doing is solving the question by rounding. You come up with an answer. Suppose you loose the decimal somewhere and you get 0.36? Is that reasonable? Do you just write the answer in the provided blank and move on. What now?
You get it wrong?!!
But your estimate should be about 9/3 = 3. Now you look at your calculator with great misgivings, because it made a mistake. Did it or did you? Well ultimately you did, but you have to blame something. So the calculator takes the heat.
Who knows? Maybe the decimal doesn't work. It's stuck or something. In any event you should be aware that there's no way the answer could be 0.36 when you estimate it to be 3.
Given:
The function is

To find:
The vertical asymptote of the given function.
Solution:
Vertical asymptote are the vertical line passes thought the values for which the function is not defined.
To find the vertical asymptote, equate the denominator equal to 0.
We have,

Denominator is (x+2).


The vertical asymptote is
.
Therefore, the correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Errors in Algebraic Operations
</u>
It's usual that students make mistakes when misunderstanding the application of algebra's basic rules. Here we have two of them
- When we change the signs of all the terms of a polynomial, the expression must be preceded by a negative sign
- When multiplying negative and positive quantities, if the number of negatives is odd, the result is negative. If the number of negatives is even, the result is positive.
- Not to confuse product of fractions with the sum of fractions. Rules are quite different
The first expression is

Let's arrange into format:

We can clearly see in all of the factors in the expression the signs were changed correctly, but the result should have been preceeded with a negative sign, because it makes 3 (odd number) negatives, resulting in a negative expression. The correct form is

Now for the second expression

Let's arrange into format

It's a clear mistake because it was asssumed a product of fractions instead of a SUM of fractions. If the result was correct, then the expression should have been

Well, one advantage simply is that its a loan. If its a loan, you can pay little by little until its paid off. Not sure if this helps, but I hope it does.
