Answer:

52/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Use basic Thales therom,

$\frac{3x}{4x}=\frac{3x+7}{5x-8}\\\\\frac{3}{4}=\frac{3x+7}{5x-8}\\$

Cross multiply,

3*(5x-8)=4*(3x+7)

3*5x - 3*8 = 4*3x + 4*7

15x - 24 = 12x +28

Add 24 to both sides

15x = 12x + 28 + 24

15x = 12x + 52

Subtract 12x from both sides

15x-12x =52

3x = 52

Divide both sides by 3

x = 52/3

Find the horizontal asymptote off of x equals quantity 3 x squared plus 3x plus 6 end quantity over quantity x squared plus 1.

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (3x² + 3x + 6) / (x² + 1)

The power of the numerator and denominator are equal, so as x approaches infinity, y approaches the ratio of the leading coefficients.

y = 3/1

I NEED HELP!!! has endpoints X(7, 10) and Y(5, –8). Find the coordinates of the midpoint of .

Firlakuza [10]

The formula of a midpoint between X and Y:

$M_{XY}\left(\dfrac{x_X+x_Y}{2},\ \dfrac{y_X+y_Y}{2}\right)$

We have the points X(7, 10) and Y(5, -8). Substitute:

$\dfrac{7+5}{2}=\dfrac{12}{2}=6\\\\\dfrac{10+(-8)}{2}=\dfrac{2}{2}=1$
