The answer is: [B]: $ 326.92 .
___________________________________________
Explanation: There are 52 weeks in a year; and we are given that she is paid weekly.

We are given she is paid $17,000 per year.

So, we divide $17,000 by 52; and see which answer is closest to this value.
______________________________________________________
Alternately, we can set this up as:
______________________________________________________
($17,000 / 1 yr)* (1 yr/52 weeks) = ? ; The "yr" units cancel; and we are left with units of "$ dollars / weeks" ("dollars per week");

and we have (17,000 / 52) dollars per week.
______________________________________________________
Using a calculator, (17,000 / 52) = 326.9230769230769231 ;
So, $326.9230769230769231 ; which comes VERY CLOSE to:

Answer choice: [B]: $ <span>326.92 .

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem you need the function

h(t) = -16t2 + v0t + h0

where t = time

v0 is the initial velocity, which in our case is 0

h0 = initial height, which in our case is 256

h(t) = 0 since we want to know when the ball will hit the ground.

0 = -16 t2 + 256

And we can solve for t

If we rearrange the terms we see that this is a difference of 2 squares

0 = 256 - 16t2

0 = (16-4t)(16+4t)

Setting each factor = 0

16-4t=0 16+4t=4

t = 4 t = -4

The second solution is discarded as time cannot be negative.

So the ball will hit the ground in 4 seconds.

What is the equation of the oblique asymptote?<br> h(x) = x² – 3x - 4/x + 2

NNADVOKAT [17]

Simplifying h(x) gives

h(x) = (x² - 3x - 4) / (x + 2)

h(x) = ((x² + 4x + 4) - 4x - 4 - 3x - 4) / (x + 2)

h(x) = ((x + 2)² - 7x - 8) / (x + 2)

h(x) = ((x + 2)² - 7 (x + 2) - 14 - 8) / (x + 2)

h(x) = ((x + 2)² - 7 (x + 2) - 22) / (x + 2)

h(x) = (x + 2) - 7 - 22/(x + 2)

h(x) = x - 5 - 22/(x + 2)

An oblique asymptote of h(x) is a linear function p(x) = ax + b such that

$\displaystyle \lim_{x\to\pm\infty} h(x) - p(x) = 0$

In the simplified form of h(x), taking the limit as x gets arbitrarily large, we obviously have -22/(x + 2) converging to 0, while x - 5 approaches either +∞ or -∞. If we let p(x) = x - 5, however, we do have h(x) - p(x) approaching 0. So the oblique asymptote is the line y = x - 5.
