Answer:
(a) and (a)
Step-by-step explanation:
In both questions the denominator of the rational functions cannot be zero as this would make them undefined. Equating the denominators to zero and solving gives the values that x cannot be.
Given

solve (3 - x)(2 + x) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
3 - x = 0 ⇒ x = 3
2 + x = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
x = 3 and x = - 2 are excluded values → (a)

Given

solve
6x² + 10x - 4 = 0 ← in standard form
(x+ 2)(6x - 2) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
6x - 2 = 0 ⇒ 6x = 2 ⇒ x = 
x =
and x = - 2 are excluded values → (a)
Answer: D
Explanation:
The equation of a line in the point slope form is expressed as
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
where
m represents slope
x1 and y1 represents coordinates of the point that the line passes.
From the information given, the equation of the path of the old route is
y = 2x/5 - 4
Recall, the equation of a line in the slope intercept form is expressed as
y = mx + c
By comparing both equations,
slope, m = 2/5
If two lines are parallel, it means that they have the same slope. Given that the new route is to be parallel to the old route and will go through point (Q, P), then
m = 2/5
x1 = Q
y1 = P
The equation of the new route be
y - P = 2/5(x - Q)
