<span>When a = 3 and b ≠ 5, the system will be inconsistent because the lines will be parallel. When a = 3 and b = 5, the system will be consistent and dependent because they represent the same line.</span>
C(x) = 4x³+7x²-14x-6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the amount of water used in normal days is given by the equation;
W(x) = 5x³ +9x²-14x +9 -----(i)
The amount of decrease in water used is modeled by the equation;
D(x)= x³+2x² +15--------(ii)
To get the function C(x) that models the water used by the car wash on shorter day you subtract equation (ii) from equation(i)
5x³ +9x²-14x +9
- x³+2x² +15
-------------------------
4x³+7x²-14x-6

(x²+4x+3)/2(x²-10x+25)
the horizontal asymptote when the numerator and the denominator have the same degree (in this case, both of a degree of 2) is ration of the coefficients of the numerator and denominator. In this case, the coefficient for numerator x² is 1, and the coefficient for the denominator 2x² is 2, so the horizontal asymptote is y=1/2=0.5
the vertical asymptote is the x value. the denominator cannot be zero, if x²-10x+25=0, x would be 5, so the vertical asymptote is x=5
this is just one example. There can be others:
(2x²+5x+2)/[(4x-7)(x-5)] for another example, but this example has a second vertical asymptote 4x-7=0 =>x=7/4
5.1 would be the greater amount. look at the place next the whole number. notice that in 5.1 the # next to the whole # is 1. and in 5.01 the # next to the whole # is 0. so ask yourself which is greater: 1 or 0. 1 is greater so the answer would be 5.1
