If you have a fraction, then the denominator (bottom) cannot equal 0, since it is impossible to divide by 0. Take a look at the function below.

y=\frac{5}{x-2}

If we plugged in 2 for x, we would end up with a denominator of 0, making x = 2 "extraneous."

(you can use this example to answer your question, with the denominator being x-2...any expression that evaluates to 0 when x = 2 would work)

The table shows the height, in centimeters, that a weight bouncing from a spring would achieve if there were no friction, for a
Paha777 [63]
Hello! For ease of calculations, we can identify the time it took for the weight to bounce back to the other direction, then the other, and then back to its original position by looking at the time it took for the weight to change from 0 to 25 to 0 to -25 then back to 0. This is one whole cycle of the weight.

By the time the weight first reached zero, 1.5 seconds has passed. By the third time it got to zero again, 7.5 seconds has passed. Therefore, one whole cycle of the weight is 7.5-1.5 = 6.0 seconds.

ANSWER: One whole cycle of the weight took 6 seconds.

Blababa [14]

Answer:

($) 60 is the profit per item when the selling price is reduced by 20%

Step-by-step explanation: 20% of 700 is 140.

The original profit is 700 - 500 = 200. The selling price is 140 less, Subtract 140 from 200. That leaves a profit of 60. (Not necessarily dollars, as the currency was not given in the question.)
