Answer:

The example of deductive reasoning is:

All even numbers are divisible by 2. The number 18 is even, so it is divisible by 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Deductive reasoning, also known as deductive logic, logical deduction is the process of reasoning from one or more statements to reach a logically certain conclusion.

Hence, the example of deductive reasoning is:

All even numbers are divisible by 2. The number 18 is even, so it is divisible by 2.

(

Since we are given a statement that:

All even numbers are divisible by 2.Also the number 18 is even

so, it's a certain or obvious conclusion that it is divisible by 2 )

( While in the first and second statement based on some or just one observation we can't judge that it would be true for everyone as it will not be a certain conclusion to draw for all)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how long it takes for the object to hit the ground you need to set h(t)=0 after this you need to find the number that when plugged into t makes the equation equal to 0

Algebra help - asymptotes

motikmotik

Find where the equation is undefined ( when the denominator is equal to 0.

Since they say x = 5, replace x in the equation see which ones equal o:

5-5 = 0

So we know the denominator has to be (x-5), this now narrows it down to the first two answers.

To find the horizontal asymptote, we need to look at an equation for a rational function: R(x) = ax^n / bx^m, where n is the degree of the numerator and m is the degree of the denominator.

In the equations given neither the numerator or denominators have an exponent ( neither are raised to a power)

so the degrees would be equal.

Since they are equal the horizontal asymptote is the y-intercept, which is given as -2.

This makes the first choice the correct answer.
