Describe the behavior of the function ppp around its vertical asymptote at x=-2x=−2x, equals, minus, 2.

insens350 [35]

Answer:

$x->-2^{-}, p(x)->-\infty$ and as $x->-2^{+}, p(x)->-\infty$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$p(x) = \frac{x^2-2x-3}{x+2}$ -- Missing from the question

Required

The behavior of the function around its vertical asymptote at $x = -2$

$p(x) = \frac{x^2-2x-3}{x+2}$

Expand the numerator

$p(x) = \frac{x^2 + x -3x - 3}{x+2}$

Factorize

$p(x) = \frac{x(x + 1) -3(x + 1)}{x+2}$

Factor out x + 1

$p(x) = \frac{(x -3)(x + 1)}{x+2}$

We test the function using values close to -2 (one value will be less than -2 while the other will be greater than -2)

We are only interested in the sign of the result

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As x approaches -2 implies that:

$x -> -2^{-}$ Say x = -3

$p(x) = \frac{(x -3)(x + 1)}{x+2}$

$p(-3) = \frac{(-3-3)(-3+1)}{-3+2} = \frac{-6 * -2}{-1} = \frac{+12}{-1} = -12$

We have a negative value (-12); This will be called negative infinity

This implies that as x approaches -2, p(x) approaches negative infinity

$x->-2^{-}, p(x)->-\infty$

Take note of the superscript of 2 (this implies that, we approach 2 from a value less than 2)

As x leaves -2 implies that: $x>-2$

Say x = -2.1

$p(-2.1) = \frac{(-2.1-3)(-2.1+1)}{-2.1+2} = \frac{-5.1 * -1.1}{-0.1} = \frac{+5.61}{-0.1} = -56.1$

We have a negative value (-56.1); This will be called negative infinity

This implies that as x leaves -2, p(x) approaches negative infinity

$x->-2^{+}, p(x)->-\infty$

So, the behavior is:

$x->-2^{-}, p(x)->-\infty$ and as $x->-2^{+}, p(x)->-\infty$

Select the best answer to complete the sentence. A Rigid Motion or Isometry ______________________.

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer: A. preserves length, angle measures and distance between points

Rigid motions or isometries are any of the three transformations below

translation (aka shifting)
rotation
reflection

Any of those three transformations will keep the figure the same size and shape. That means distances between any two points are kept the same, and angle measures are kept the same as well. Everything is kept the same. The only difference is that the figure is in a different location, is rotated somehow, or it is reflected some way. You can use a series of transformations to undo everything to get the original figure back.

If you wanted to change the size of the figure, then you would apply dilation, which isn't an isometry.

Round 538.060 to the nearest whole number

sasho [114]

Answer:

538

Step-by-step explanation:

if you round the hundreth place up, the tenth place would be 1. However, rounding that would give you 0 as it's less than 5. Therefore, all decimal places would become 0, and that only leaves 538.
