Answer:

The correct option is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

f(x)=ax+b

Where, a and b are positive numbers.

The given function is the slope intercept form of a linear function. Where a is the slope and b is y-intercept.

Since slope is positive therefore function approaches to infinity as x approaches to infinity and function approaches to negative infinity as x approaches to negative infinity.

It is also proved by using limits.

lim_{x\rightarrow \infty}f(x)=lim_{x\rightarrow \infty}(ax+b)

Apply limits.

lim_{x\rightarrow \infty}f(x)=a(\infty)+b=\infty

Similarly,

lim_{x\rightarrow -\infty}f(x)=lim_{x\rightarrow -\infty}(ax+b)

Apply limits.

lim_{x\rightarrow -\infty}f(x)=a(-\infty)+b=-\infty

Therefore option 2 is correct.

f(x)\rightarrow \infty \text{ as }x\rightarrow \infty

f(x)\rightarrow -\infty \text{ as }x\rightarrow -\infty

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right triangle with two congruent angles. so this is a isoceles right triangle or called a

45-45-90 triangle. This means that the legs are equal to each other so

3(x + 2)  = 24

3x + 6 = 24

3x = 18

x = 6

a.
h = 2c - 3

b.
3h + 1.5c = 201

c.
We have a system of equations from part a and b.
h = 2c - 3   (equation 1)
3h + 1.5c = 201   (equation 2)

We use substitution method to solve this system.
Substitute equation 1 in equation 2 to get
3h + 1.5c = 201
>> 3(2c - 3) + 1.5c = 201
>> 6c - 9 + 1.5c = 201
>> 7.5c = 201 + 9
>> 7.5c = 210
>> c = 210 / 7.5
>> c = 28

Plug this value back in equation 1 to get
h = 2c - 3  
>> h = 2(28) - 3 = 56 - 3 = 53

So, c = 28 and h = 53 implies that <u>28 corndogs</u> and 53 hotdogs were sold.
