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

(Picture) MULTIPLYING POLYNOMIALS AND SIMPLIFYING EXPRESSIONS PLEASE HELP!!!!
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Answer: Third option is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we the write the expression

(a+b)(a^{2}+b^{2}-ab)

Now teacher says that the product of these polynomials will result in the sum of  a^{3}+b^{3}

Now the teacher ask if we put the value of a = 2x and b = 1 then what will be the expression look like.

(2x+1)\left [ (2x)^{2}+(1^{2})-(2x)(1)\right ]

=(2x+1)(4x^{2}+1-2x)

So third option is looking like our expression.

A triangular courtyard has a perimeter of 120 meters. The lengths of two sides are 30 meters and 50 meters. How long is the thir
Masja [62]

Answer:

the third side is 40 m long

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the triangle is the sum of its three sides, and they give you what that value in meters is (120 m)

Your are given the length of two of them: 30 m and 50 m, and need to find the third one (let's call it "x" for this unknown side)

Now set the following equation:

Perimeter = side 1 + side 2 + side 3   --> replace these with the info you know

120 m = 30 m + 50 m + x   --> add 30 m and 50 m obtaining 80 m

120 m = 80 m + x  --> now solve for x (isolate the x on one side) by subtracting 80 m from both sides

120 m - 80 m = x  --> perform the subtraction 120 m - 80 m = 40 m

40 m = x

Which tells us that the third unknown side has a length of 40 m
