Answer:
x = ±2, 3 are the critical points of the given inequality.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given inequality is
To find the critical points we will equate the numerator and denominator of the inequality to zero.
For numerator,
(x - 2)(x + 2) = 0
x = ±2
For denominator,
x² - 5x + 6 = 0
x² - 3x -2x + 6 = 0
x(x - 3) -2(x - 3) = 0
(x - 3)(x - 2) = 0
x = 2, 3
Therefore, critical points of the inequality are x = ±2, 3 where the sign of the inequality will change.
Answer: First Option
a) exponential function going through point (0, 2) and ending up on the right
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the attached image, the red line represents a function of the form:
Note that this function cuts to the axis and at the point (0, 1)
Also when x tends to ∞ f(x) tends to ∞ and when f(x) tends to -∞ then f(x) tends to zero.
If we perform the transformation then the graph of y is equal to the graph of f(x) displaced 1 unit up. Then the new cutting point with the axis y will be: (0, 2) as shown in the attached image (blue line)
The transform function is
Finally the answer is the first option
