Step-by-step explanation:

We have given,

A rational function : f(x) = \frac{x-2}{x-4}

W need to find :

Point of discontinuity : - At x = 4, f(x) tends to reach infinity, So we get discontinuity point at x =4.

For no values of x, we get indetermined form (i.e \frac{0}{0}), Hence there is no holes

Vertical Asymptotes:

Plug y=f(x) = ∞ in f(x) to get vertical asymptote   {We can us writing ∞ = \frac{1}{0}}

i.e ∞ = \frac{x-2}{x-4}

or \frac{1}{0}=\frac{x-2}{x-4}

or x-4 =0

or x=4, Hence at x = 4, f(x) has a vertical asymptote

X -intercept :

Plug f(x)=0 , to get x intercept.

i.e 0 = \frac{x-2}{x-4}

or x - 2 =0

or x = 2

Hence at x=2, f(x) has an x intercept

Horizontal asymptote:

Plug x = ∞ in f(x) to get horizontal asymptote.

i.e f(x) = \frac{x-2}{x-4} = \frac{x(1-\frac{2}{x} )}{x(1-\frac{4}{x} )}

or f(x) = \frac{(1-\frac{2}{∞} )}{(1-\frac{4}{∞} )}

or f(x) = 1 = y

hence at y =f(x) = 1, we get horizontal asymptote

Please help guys need help

Answer:

A) slope = 20.

B)  The slope of 20 dollars per hour means that for every hour, the price of the service call increases by 20 dollars (or you could say the price of the service call is 20 dollars every hour, both work.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that slope is y2 - y1 / x2 - x1.

Excellent. We are provided with two points: (1, 60) and (3, 100). Let’s enter this into our formula.

Slope = (100 - 60) / (3 - 1) = 40 / 2 = 20.

Now, to determine what the slope means, we can look at the axis titles on the graph. The x axis title is hours, or time in hours. The y axis title is price of the service call in dollars. Therefore, the slope is price (in dollars) per time (in hours).

This can be restated as: The slope of 20 dollars per hour means that for every hour, the price of the service call increases by 20 dollars (or you could say the price of the service call is 20 dollars every hour, both work.)

Hope this helps!

Answer:

The correct way to set up the slope formula for the line that passes through points (5 , 0) and (6 , -6) is  \frac{-6-0}{6-5} ⇒ C

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the slope of a line passes through points (x_{1},y_{1}) and (x_{2},y_{2})

is m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

∵ The line passes through points (5 , 0) and (6 , -6)

∴ x_{1} = 5 and  x_{2} = 6

∴  y_{1} = 0 and  y_{2} = -6

Substitute these values in the formula of the slope

∵ m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

∴ m=\frac{-6-0}{6-5}

Let us look to the answer and find the same formula

The answer is:

The correct way to set up the slope formula for the line that passes through points (5 , 0) and (6 , -6) is  \frac{-6-0}{6-5}
