Find the vertical asymptote for y=x^2-5x/x^2-x-2

Mathematics
1 answer:
grigory [225]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

vertical asymptote at x=2  and x=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

y= \frac{x^2-5x}{x^2-x-2}

To find out vertical asymptote we set the denominator =0  and solve for x

x^2 - x - 2=0

now factor left hand side

find out two factors whose product is -2 and sum is -1

-2 times 1 = -2

-2+1 = -1

(x-2)(x+1) =0

x-2 =0  so x= 2

x+1 =0 so x=-1

vertical asymptote at x=2  and x=-1

Each score in a set of data is multiplied by 3, and then 4 is subtracted from the result. If the original mean is 10 and the ori
olganol [36]

The new mean and standard deviation is 26 and 15, when each score in data set is multiplied by 5 and then 7 is added.

According to the question,

Original mean is 10 and original standard deviation is 5 . In order to find to new mean and standard deviation when each score in data set is multiplied by 5 and then 7 is added.

First "change of scale" when every score in a data set is multiplied by a constant, its mean and standard deviation is multiplied by a same constant.

Mean: 10*3 = 30

Standard deviation: 5*3 = 15

Secondly "change of origin" when every score in a data set by a constant, its mean get  added or subtracted by the same constant and standard deviation remains constant.

Applying change of origin in the above mean and standard deviation  

Mean: 30 - 4 = 26

Standard deviation: Remains same = 15

Hence, the new mean and standard deviation is 26 and 15, when each score in data set is multiplied by 5 and then 7 is added.

Write an equation in point-slope form for the line through the given point with the given slope. (5,2);m=3
Sloan [31]
Point-slope form is (y - y1) = m(x - x1) so just plug in your given info:

y - 2 = 3(x - 5)

so your answer is D!!

Huw has a maths test. the second question is:
xeze [42]

Huw's answer of 9 days is incorrect because more guests would finish the food in less time so the number of days for 30 guests is less than 6 days.

The number of days that the food can last 30 guests is 4 days.

<h3>How long will Seaview Hotel's food feed 30 guests?</h3>

More guests would eat the food faster which means that it would be finished in less days than the 6 days used by 20 guests.

To find the days the food would last 30 guests, use the inverse proportion formula:
= (Number of guests x Number of days food lasts for guests) / New number of guests

= (20 x 6) / 30

= 4 days

Full question is:

The only food provided for guests at Seaview Hotel is breakfast. The hotel has enough food to make breakfast for 20 guests for 6 days. How long would the food last 30 guests? You may assume each guest eats the same amount of food for breakfast.

Without working out the correct answer, explain why Huw’s answer of 9 days is incorrect.
