(3x+1) (2x+4)
When the first number has multiple factors (like 6) it often times seems to be the factors that are closest together (3×2 instead of 6×1) So I usually use that as a starting point and play with the numbers until you find your answer. The more you do it, the easier it gets. And remember to always check your answer!
A vertical asymptote is what you get when you try to divide by 0. To find where you get these, you need to look at the denominator and what values of x will make the denominator equal to 0.
In your denominator, you have (x+7)(x-5)(x-3).
What values of x makes (x+7)(x-5)(x-3)=0?
If x = -7, if x = 5, or if x = 3, then that entire expression will equal zero. (Same idea as when you solve equations by factoring.
Now the only place this can get trickier is if one of those factors — one of (x+7), (x-5), or (x-3) — also appears in the numerator. If that happens, then it’s more involved whether you have an asymptote or not. But that doesn’t happen in this example.
So the short version: Asymptotes happen when you try to divide by zero. Dividing by zero is not a good thing. So you just ask yourself, “What will make the denominator 0?”
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the difference between the 2 points.
For example, (8, 9) (5, 3).
Compare the difference between the x's, in this case 8 and 5. The difference is 3. Do the same with the y's, 9 and 3. The difference is 6.
To find the slope, it's y/x. The slope in this situation is 6/3. Simplify. The slope is 2.
To find the y-intercept, insert the slope and one of the 2 points in the beginning into y = mx + b & solve for b.
For example, if we use the ordered pair (5, 3) the equation would look like:
3 = 2(5) + b, Solve for b.
Multiply. 3 = 10 + b
Get b by itself by adding - 10 to both sides.
-7 = b
The y-intercept is -7. So, in this case, the equation is y = 2x - 7.
It depends. Multiples of 10 are:
10, 20, 30, 40, 50...........
And a 2 digit number can be anything between 10 and 99.
