Answer:

There are a maximum of 2 peaches in the basket.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 30 fruits in a basket, all apples and peaches.

If 3 fruits are taken out of the basket, it is said that at least one of the 3 fruits would be an apple.

For this to be possible, it means, picking 3 fruits, at random from the basket guarantees at least 1 of them being an apple.

This means that the maximum number of peaches obtainable from the basket is 2, to guarantee a sure case of the last fruit of 3 selected fruits being an Apple. There has to be a minimum of 28 apples in the basket for this statement to be absolutely non-contestable.

Hope this Helps!!!

Find the vertical and horizontal asympotote for (×-2) (×+3)/ (2×+2)
nekit [7.7K]

\bf \cfrac{(x-2)(x+3)}{2x+2}\implies \cfrac{x^2+x-6}{2x+2}~~ \begin{array}{llll} \leftarrow \textit{2nd degree polynomial}\\ \leftarrow \textit{1st degree polynomial} \end{array} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{vertical asymptote}}{2x+2=0}\implies 2x=-2\implies x=-\cfrac{2}{2}\implies x=-1


when the degree of the numerator is greater than the denominator's, then it has no horizontal asymptotes.


quick note:

when the degree of the numerator is 1 higher than the degree of the denominator, then it has an slant-asymptote, so this one has a slant-asymptote.
