In this question, it is given that
Leanne has a gas card that has $150 on it. She spends $25 a week on gas.
And we have to Write a recursive rule that represents the amount of money she has on her gas card after the first week .
Recursive rule shows the relationship between previous value and the current value .
And here, the recursive rule is
Where a(n-1) is the initial amount which is $150 . And a(n) is the amount after n week .
So for n=1, that is amount in the card after 1 week, we will get
And that's the amount remaining in the card after 1 week .
Answer:
. hole or removable discontinuity at x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
Well generally if you want the simplest form, you factor each the denominator and numerator and then see if you can cancel any of the factors out (because they're in the denominator and numerator)
So let's start by factoring the first equation:
Now let's find what ac is (it's just c since a=1...)
List factors of -6
.
Now we have to look for two numbers that add up to -5. It's a bit obvious here since there isn't many factors, but it's -2 and -3, and they're both negative since 6 is positive, and -5 is negative...
So using these two factors we get
Ok now let's factor the second equation:
Multiply a and c
List factors of 12:
.
Factors that add up to -7 and multiply to 12:
Rewrite equation:
Group terms:
Factor out GCF:
Rewrite:
Now let's write out the equation using these factors:
.
Here we can factor out the x-2 and the simplified form is:
So we can "technically" define f(2) using the most simplified form, but it's removable discontinuity, so it has a hole as x=2. since it makes (x-2) equal to 0 (2-2) = 0.
