x-(x/3)=2
turn x into a fraction x/1
to get x/1 -x/3 = 2
multiply x/1 x 3/3 to get both fractions with same denominator
3x/3 - x/3
(3x-x)/3
3x-x = 2x
so now you have (2x)/3 =2
multiply both sides by 3 to get 2x = 6
divide bothe sides by 2 to get x = 3, which is the answer
A given rational function may or may not have a vertical asymptote (depending upon whether the denominator ever equals zero), but (at this level of study) it will always have either a horizontal or else a slant asymptote.
Ans: x=1.590667 or x= -1.257334
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find this, simply multiply the percentage by the total amount.
$5,000 * 4%
$5,000 * .04
$200
Answer:
Let x be the number of regular health bars you buy and y the number of strawberry health bars you buy. Then:
0.75x+1.25y=3.75
x+y>=3
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first equation, we have to assume that you will spend all of your money, otherwise it becomes an inequation. The money you spend on regular bars is 0.75x dollars and the money you spend on strawberry bars is 1.25y, so if you spend your 3.75 dollars on the bars, then 0.75x+1.25y=3.75.
For the second, you will always buy x+y health bars, regular and strawberry. There isn't enough information to make this into a equation, the only thing we can deduce is the inequation x+y>=3.
If we also assume that x and y are integers (we can't buy half-bars or one-fourth of a bar) then the minimum number of bars we can buy is 3 (3 strawberry bars) and the maximum is 5 bars (5 regular bars). x+y must be an integer too, so the possibilities for the second equation are x+y=3, x+y=4 and x+y=5. There is a finite number of solutions in any case.
