As part of a school contest, Sarah and Luis are playing a math game. Sarah must pick a number between 1 and 50 and give Luis clu

es so he can write an equation to find her number. Sarah says, "If i subtract 5 from my number, multiply that quantity by 4, and then add 7 to the result, i get 35." What equation can Luis write based on Sarah's clues and what is Sarah;s clues and what is is Sarah's number?

Simple, writing an equation,

(x-5)*4+7=35

multiply the 4 in

4x-20+7=35

4x-13=35

add 13 to the other side

4x-13=35
     +13  +13
4x=48

x=12.

The number is 12. But to check it, substitute the 12 into the equation.

(12-5)*4+7=35

(7)*4+7=35

28+7=35

35=35.

Thus, your answer is , the number is 12.

In what ways can horizontal, vertical, and oblique asymptotes be identified?
antiseptic1488 [7]
A horizontal asymptote y = a is a horizontal line which a curve approaches as x approaches positive or negative infinity. If the limit of a curve as x approaches either positive or negative infinity is a, then y=a is a horizontal asymptote.

A vertical asymptote x = b is a vertical line that a curve approaches but never crosses. The value b is not in the domain of the curve. More precisely if the limit of a curve as x approaches b is either positive or negative infinity then x=b is a vertical asymptote.

An oblique asymptote is a diagonal line (a line whose slope is either positive or negative) that a curve approaches. For a rational function R(x) = P(x) / Q (x) an oblique asymptote y = my + b is obtained by dividing P(x) by Q (x). Doing so will yield a quotient and remainder. If we set the quotient equal to y that gives the equation of the oblique asymptote.

8.88 x 10,000 really confused with this one on my homework, can you guys anseer and explain why? would really help!
Trava [24]
When multiplying by a number that is 1 with 0's on the end, you move the decimal to the right by how many zeros there are.

Because 10,000 has 5 0's, we move the decimal 5 places to the right.

8.88 => 88800
