Which description compares the vertical asymptotes of function A and function B correctly?

Answer:

Option B:

Function A has a vertical asymptote at x = 1

Function B has a vertical asymptote at x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

A function f(x) has a vertical asymptote if:

\lim_{x \to\\k^+}f(x) = \±\infty\\\\ \lim_{x \to\\k^-}f(x) = \±\infty

This means that if there is a value k for which f(x) has infinity or a -infinity then x = k is a vertical asymptote of f(x). Therefore, the closer x to k approaches, the closer the function becomes to infinity.

We can calculate the asymptote for function A.

\lim_{x \to \\1^+}(\frac{1}{x-1})\\\\ \lim_{x \to \\1^+}(\frac{1}{1^-1})\\\\ \lim_{x \to \\1^+}(\frac{1}{0}) = \infty\\\\and\\ \lim_{x \to \\1^-}(\frac{1}{x-1})\\\\\lim_{x \to \\1^-}(\frac{1}{0}) = -\infty

Then, function A has a vertical asymptote at x = 1.

The asymptote of function B can be easily observed in the graph. Note that the function b is not defined for x = -3 and when x is closest to -3, f(x) approaches infinity.

Therefore x = -3 is asintota of function B.

Therefore the correct answer is option B.

Please explain how to solve this step by step.
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

  (a^8)/(b^9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Two rules of exponents come into play.

  (a^b)/(a^c) = a^(b-c)

  a^-b = 1/a^b

__

Applying the first rule, we have ...

  (a^3)/(a^-5) × (b^-2)/(b^7) = a^(3 -(-5)) × b^(-2 -7) = a^8 × b^-9

Applying the second rule gives the simplified form ...

  = (a^8)/(b^9)

In Triangle A B C, what is the value of x? Triangle A B C. Angle A is (10 x minus 10) degrees, angle B is (8 x) degrees, angle C
svp [43]

Answer:

6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of all angles in a triangle are 180 degrees.

=> 10x -10 + 8x + 10x + 8 = 180

=> 28x -2 = 180

=> 28x = 182

=> x = 6.5

So, Angle A = 10 x 6.5 -10 = 65 - 10 = 55 degrees

     Angle B = 8 x 6.5 = 52 degrees

     Angle C = 10 x 6.5 + 8 = 65 + 8 = 73 degrees.

55 + 52 + 73 = 55 + 125 = 180 degrees
