if a > 0, there are two possible solutions:

the square root of a square is the base in absolute value bars


if a = 0, that means x = 0. anything multiplied by 0 is 0
if a < 0, there are no solutions because anything squared has to be positive
Answer:
20
Explanation:
To estimate, we round. 102.3 rounds to 100 and 4.7 rounds to 5; this means we divide 100/5, which is 20.
ANSWER
y=7
EXPLANATION
The horizontal asymptote of an exponential function

is y=c.
The given exponential function is

When we compare to

c=7, therefore the horizontal asymptote is y=7.
Given:
Guests at an amusement park must be at least 54 inches tall to be able to ride the roller coaster.
To find:
The graph that represents the set of heights that satisfy this requirement.
Solution:
Let x be the height required for the ride.
Guests must be at least 54 inches tall to be able to ride the roller coaster. It means required height is greater than or equal to 54.

So, 54 and all values above 54 are in the solution set.
Since, 54 is included in the solution set, therefore there is a closed circle at 54. All values above 54 are in the solution set, so everything to the right of the circle is shaded.
Therefore, the correct option is C.
