Given the functionf ( x ) = x^2 + 7 x + 10/ x^2 + 9 x + 20
vladimir1956 [14]

<em>x = -4 is a vertical asymptote for the function.</em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The graph of y=f(x) is a vertical has an asymptote at x=a if at least one of the following statements is true:

1) \ \underset{x\rightarrow a^{-}}{lim}f(x)=\infty\\ \\ 2) \ \underset{x\rightarrow a^{-}}{lim}f(x)=-\infty \\ \\ 3) \ \underset{x\rightarrow a^{+}}{lim}f(x)=\infty \\ \\ 4) \ \underset{x\rightarrow a^{+}}{lim}f(x)=\infty

The function is:

f(x)=\frac{x^2+7x+10}{x^2+9x+20}

First of all, let't factor out:

f(x)=\frac{x^2+5x+2x+10}{x^2+5x+4x+20} \\ \\ f(x)=\frac{x(x+5)+2(x+5)}{x(x+5)+4(x+5)} \\ \\ f(x)=\frac{(x+5)(x+2)}{(x+5)(x+4)} \\ \\ f(x)=\frac{(x+2)}{(x+4)}, \ x\neq  5

From here:

\bullet \ When \ x \ approaches \ -4 \ on \ the \ right: \\ \\ \underset{x\rightarrow -4^{+}}{lim}\frac{(x+2)}{(x+4)}=? \\ \\ \underset{x\rightarrow -4^{+}}{lim}\frac{(-4^{+}+2)}{(-4^{+}+4)} \\ \\ \\ The \ numerator \ is \ negative \ and \ the \ denominator \\ is \ a \ small \ positive \ number. \ So: \\ \\ \underset{x\rightarrow -4^{+}}{lim}\frac{(x+2)}{(x+4)}=-\infty

\bullet \ When \ x \ approaches \ -4 \ on \ the \ left: \\ \\ \underset{x\rightarrow -4^{-}}{lim}\frac{(x+2)}{(x+4)}=? \\ \\ \underset{x\rightarrow -4^{-}}{lim}\frac{(-4^{-}+2)}{(-4^{-}+4)} \\ \\ \\ The \ numerator \ is \ a \ negative \ and \ the \ denominator \\ is \ a \ small \ negative \ number \ too. \ So: \\ \\ \underset{x\rightarrow -4^{-}}{lim}\frac{(x+2)}{(x+4)}=+\infty

Accordingly:

x=-4 \ is \ a \ vertical \ asymptote \ for \\ \\ f(x)=\frac{x^2+5x+2x+10}{x^2+5x+4x+20}

Connected to the question before this
lesya [120]

Answer:

(4)Angle A is 63°

Step-by-step explanation:

To find angle A here is what you have to do

(1) triangle A is an Isosceles triangle which has two of its angles being equal.

(2) To find A we hv to look for the interior angles of the triangle. If u look carefully there is this angle outside the triangle .we can use a property called "Angles on a straight line

(3) " Angles on a straight line sum up to 180°" When u do that ur equation will look like this

126+(x)=180°. u may be wondering hw did we get the x?? well i named the angle we dont know with any valuable like T,F etc .when u group like terms ur equation should look like this (x)=180°-126°

if u subtract ur answer should be x=63°

(B) if u look closely u will see there are two triangles. The one to the far right is an Isosceles triangle why because there is this double stroke indicating it is an Isosceles triangle. Remember an Isosceles triangle has its bases being equal. so the the triangle has two angles of 30°. so If we want to find B we first have to find the interior angles of the Isosceles triangle . so our epuarion will be like this 30°+30°+(X)=180°

U group like terms so it will look like this x=180°-60° so,

x= 120°

So now T=120°

Now to find B

we write the equation like this T+(W)=180°

we put the value of T into the Equation w=180°-120 the answer is 60°

So to find B we find the interior angles of the triangle and the interior angles of the Isosceles triangle sum up to 180. so it will look like this B+90+60=180

Nb they should be in Degrees

finally u group like terms. ur equation should look like this B=180-150

ur answer should be B=30°

Solve for x by completing the square: x2 - 12x + 11 = 0
sineoko [7]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - 12x + 11 = 0 ( subtract 11 from both sides )

x² - 12x = - 11

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 6)x + 36 = - 11 + 36

(x - 6)² = 25 ( take square root of both sides )

x - 6 = ± \sqrt{25} = ± 5 ( add 6 to both sides )

x = 6 ± 5

Then

x = 6 - 5 = 1 ⇒ (1, 0 )

x = 6 + 5 = 11 ⇒ (11, 0 )
