Answer:

12/17 is greater

Step-by-step explanation:

12/17 is greater than 5/8 because to determine which fraction is greater you need to have the same denominator. To get the same denominator I multiplied 17 by 8 and 8 by 17. Since what you do the denominator you have to do the same to the numerator, you would multiply 12 by 8 and 5 by 17 which would lead you to get 12/17= 96/136 and 5/8= 85/136. So, 96/136 > 85/136.

Which of the following rational functions is graphed below?

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

option B

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see in the graph that the function has two values of x where the value of y goes to infinity: x = -6 and x = 6.

These points where the value of the function goes to infinity usually are roots of the polynomial in the denominator of a fraction (when the values of x tend to these values, the denominator of the fraction tends to 0, so we have a discontinuity in the function).

So the option that represents a function that have these points in x = -6 and x = 6 is the function in option B.

The other options show functions that have only one point that goes to infinity.
