Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We can rewrite the equation as
Notice that we have 
in both the numerator and the denominator, so it looks like we can divide it out. However, what if is 
? Then we would have 
, which is undefined. So although it looks like the numerator and denominator can be simplified, the resulting function we would get from simplification would not have the same behavior as this one (since such a function would be defined for 
, but this one is not).
A point of discontinuity refers to a particular point which is included in the simplified function, but which is not included in the original one. In this case, the point which is not included in the unsimplified function is at . In the simplified version of the function, if we plug in , we get
So the point is our only point of discontinuity.
It's also important to distinguish between specific points of discontinuity and vertical asymptotes. This function also has a vertical asymptote at 
(since it causes the denominator to be 0), but the difference in behavior is that in the case of the asymptote, only the denominator becomes 0 for a specific value of 
Answer:
1.33
Step-by-step explanation:
The z-score of a value is found by subtracting the mean from the value and then dividing by the standard deviation, this is the formula for the z-score.
z-score = (19-15)/3
z-score = 4/3
z-score = 1.33
The z-score for the monkey is about 1.33
Answer:
3.74
Step-by-step explanation:
Square root of a number is the number that multiplies by itself to result in, in this case, 14. The number is irrational, often, though here is close to 3.74, according to the calculator. Many, though not all, courses recommend calculators for determining square roots, as the mathematical process is quite complex and often not taught. Try this if your course allows, and if not, wow that's a tough course.
