Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

to factor x² - x - 2

consider the factors of the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x-term.

the factors are - 2 and + 1 since - 2 × 1 = - 2 and - 2 + 1 = - 1

x² - x - 2 = (x - 2)(x + 1), hence (x + 1) is a factor

A 9 cm tall cone shaped paper cup can hold up to 58.9 cm cubed of water. What is the minimum amount of paper needed to make the
babymother [125]
Volume of a cone, V = πr^2h/3

r = Sqrt 3V/πh = Sqrt [(58.9*3)/(3.14*9)] = 2.5 cm, minimum

Surface area, A = πr [r+ Sqrt (h^2+r^2)] =  3.14*2.5*[2.5+ Sqrt (9^2+2.5^2)] = 92.95 cm^2

Therefore, minimum amount of paper required is 92.95 cm^2

PLEASE HELP!!! WILL MARK AS BRAINLISTS!!!

The limit is x---->4-

The negative show that x approaches from the left

Now

As x approaches 4 from the left ... Means This number should be less than 4 (<4) but really close to 4.

Let's pick a Number

Say 3.99

Substitute this... You have

3.99/3.99-4

3.99/-0.01

If we choose x to be 3.999

we will have

3.999/-0.001

Notice the pattern... As x approaches 4 from the left... This limit will approach NEGATIVE INFINITY

Why?

As you approach 4 from the left... 3.9,3.99,3.999... You notice that the denominator becomes negative and EXTREMELY SMALL... and when you divide by an extremely small Number..... You'll get a relatively HUGE VALUE(You can try this... Use a calc... Divide any number of choice by a very small number... say.. 0.0000001.... You'll get a huge result

In our case... The denominator is negative... So it Will Approach a very Huge Negative Number

Hence

Answer.. X WILL APPROACH NEGATIVE INFINITY.

Vertical asymptotes are the zeroes of the denominator of a function

The denom. is x-4

Equate to zero to get the asymptote

x-4=0

x=4

Hence... There will be a vertical asymptote at x=4.

Have a great day!
