Answer:

The answer to your question is: (∞ , 3]

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that to express an inequality, are used ( ) and [ ].

( ) are used when the point is not consider in the interval.

[ ] are used when the point is consider or is part of the interval.

Also, an empty point indicates that the number is not consider in the interval.

and, a filled point indicates that the number is consider in the interval.

For your question, the interval will be:

(∞ , 3]

Describe the behavior of the function ppp around its vertical asymptote at x=-2x=−2x, equals, minus, 2.

insens350 [35]

Answer:

$x->-2^{-}, p(x)->-\infty$ and as $x->-2^{+}, p(x)->-\infty$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$p(x) = \frac{x^2-2x-3}{x+2}$ -- Missing from the question

Required

The behavior of the function around its vertical asymptote at $x = -2$

$p(x) = \frac{x^2-2x-3}{x+2}$

Expand the numerator

$p(x) = \frac{x^2 + x -3x - 3}{x+2}$

Factorize

$p(x) = \frac{x(x + 1) -3(x + 1)}{x+2}$

Factor out x + 1

$p(x) = \frac{(x -3)(x + 1)}{x+2}$

We test the function using values close to -2 (one value will be less than -2 while the other will be greater than -2)

We are only interested in the sign of the result

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As x approaches -2 implies that:

$x -> -2^{-}$ Say x = -3

$p(x) = \frac{(x -3)(x + 1)}{x+2}$

$p(-3) = \frac{(-3-3)(-3+1)}{-3+2} = \frac{-6 * -2}{-1} = \frac{+12}{-1} = -12$

We have a negative value (-12); This will be called negative infinity

This implies that as x approaches -2, p(x) approaches negative infinity

$x->-2^{-}, p(x)->-\infty$

Take note of the superscript of 2 (this implies that, we approach 2 from a value less than 2)

As x leaves -2 implies that: $x>-2$

Say x = -2.1

$p(-2.1) = \frac{(-2.1-3)(-2.1+1)}{-2.1+2} = \frac{-5.1 * -1.1}{-0.1} = \frac{+5.61}{-0.1} = -56.1$

We have a negative value (-56.1); This will be called negative infinity

This implies that as x leaves -2, p(x) approaches negative infinity

$x->-2^{+}, p(x)->-\infty$

So, the behavior is:

$x->-2^{-}, p(x)->-\infty$ and as $x->-2^{+}, p(x)->-\infty$

Consider the angle. Which TWO statements are true?

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

C, E

Step-by-step explanation:

A. INCORRECT

A is wrong because a reflection across the x-axis DOES move the position of the figure (as it is flipped, so the position changes), but it DOES NOT change the angle (since a shift in position doesn't equal to a change in angle measure)

B. INCORRECT

Although a reflection across the x-axis does change the position of the angle, it DOES NOT change the measure of the angle.

C. CORRECT

A reflection across the x-axis does in fact move the position of the figure and does not change the angle measure. Reflections only deal with flipping a figure, not changing it's shape/distorting it so that the angle will change.

D. INCORRECT

A translation right will change the position of the figure but will not change the measure of the angle.

E. CORRECT

Yes, a translation right WILL change the position of the figure but will NOT change the measure of the angle. This is because a translation is simply moving a figure up and down; it has nothing to do with changing the shape of the figure/distorting it so that the angle is different.
