1) function f(x)

              x - 5
f(x) = ----------------
          3x^2 - 17x - 28

2) factor the denominator:

3x^2 - 17x - 28 = (3x + 4)(x - 7)

                        x - 5
=> f(x) = -----------------------
                (3x + 4) (x - 7)

3) Find the limits when x → - 4/3 and when x → 7

Lim of f(x) when x → - 4/3 = +/- ∞

=> vertical assymptote x = - 4/3

Lim of f(x) when x → 7 = +/- ∞

=> vertical assymptote x = 7

Answer: there are assympotes at x = 7 and x = - 4/3

Help me with a. b. c. I need help

hammer [34]

Answer:

a) Perimeter = 20.5 Inches

Area is 15 Sq Inches

b) Perimeter is 61.4 Cms

Area is 210 Sq cm

c) Perimeter is 22 yards

Area is 21 Sq Yards

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Perimeter = sum of all the sides

= 8+7.5+5

=20.5

Perimeter = 20.5 Inches

Area of Triangle = $\frac{1}{2} \times height \times Base$

Base = 7.5 In

Height = 4 In

$A = \frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times 7.5$

$A = 2 \times 7.5$

$A = 15$

Hence Area is 15 Sq Inches

b) Perimeter = Sum of all the sides

P=13+23+13.4+12

P=61.4

Perimeter is 61.4 Cms

Area of trapezium = $\frac{1}{2} \times height \times (sum \ of \ parallel \ sides)$

$A= \frac{1}{2} \times 12 \times (12+23)$

$A= 6 \times 25$

$A=210$

Area is 210 Sq cm

c) Perimeter = Sum of all the sides

P = 7+4+7+4 ( as Opposite sides are equal in a parallelogram

P = 22

Perimeter is 22 yards

Area of a parallelogram = $base \times height$

$A= 7 \times 3$

$A = 21$

Area is 21 Sq Yards

Sand and gravel are mixed in the ratio 5:3 to form ballast.

r-ruslan [8.4K]

<h3>Answer: 1250 kg of sand</h3>

Work Shown:

sand/gravel = 5/3

x/750 = 5/3

3x = 750*5

3x = 3750

x = 3750/3

x = 1250

At which root does the graph of f(x) = (x – 5)3(x + 2)2 touch the x-axis?

Sauron [17]

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The root will touch the axis and bounce off when the exponent is even. In that case, that means (x + 2)² is the binomial that will bounce. Therefore, the root which bounces and touches the x-axis is x = -2.
