Write an equation of the translation of y=3/x with asymptotes of x=7 and y= -5

Afina-wow [57]

The curve given has asymptotes at x=0 and y=0. We wish to move it right 7 units so the asymptote becomes x=7 and down 5 so the asymptote is y=-5

To move a function down 5 units subtract 5 from it. To move it right we subtract 7 from the independent variable (from the x). The new function is y=(3/(x-7))-5

y= (3 over (x-7)) then minus 5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You can split the coins into 3 groups, each of them has 3 coins. Weigh group 1 vs group 2, if one is lighter, that group has the fake coin. If both groups weigh the same, then group 3 has the fake coin.

Continue to split the group that has the fake coin into 3 groups, each group has 1 coin. Now apply the same procedure and we can identify the fake coin.

Total of scale usage is 2

b) if you have $3^n$ coins then you can apply the same approach and find the fake coin with just n steps. By splitting up to 3 groups each step, after each step you should be able to narrow down your suspected coin by 3 times.
