For vertical asymptotes, find the values which make the function indetermine in this case x=-7,so this is the only vertical asymptote.
For horizontal asymptotes, find the limit when x tends to infinity:
=(5x/x-15/x)/(2x/x+14/x) = 5/2, this is the horizontal asymptote y=5/2
For obliques, you have to meet the degree of the numerator is exactly a greater degree than the denominator, in this case they are the same degree so no oblique asymptote.
Firstly, subtract a^2 on both sides: 
Next, we are going to be using the difference of squares, which is
. Use this on the right side of the equation: 
Lastly, square root both sides of the equation, and <u>your answer will be
</u>
It is fourteen and two/thirds if im right
Answer:
5/34 mi/min
Step-by-step explanation:
To find miles per minute, divide miles by minutes:
(7 3/4 mi)/(52 7/10 min) = (31/4 mi)/(527/10 min)
= (31/4)(10/527) mi/min = 310/2108 mi/min = 5/34 mi/min
Carlton's average pace was 5/34 miles per minute.

Since the given numbers are mixed numbers, we assume this is supposed to be a problem in fractions. Hence we have given the answer as a fraction. Its decimal value is about 0.14706. It is a repeating decimal with a 16-digit repeat.
You may have to do a little work to reduce the fraction 310/2108 to 5/34. You have to factor out a factor of 62. The numerator is 310=2·5·31, so that gives you a short list of factors to try with the denominator.
