The graphs have precisely the same shape, but that of g(x) is that of f(x) translated 4 units DOWN.
There is some ambiguity here which could be removed by using parentheses. I'm going to assume that you actually meant:
x-3
h(x) = ---------------
(x^3-36x)
To determine the domain of this function, factor the denominator:
x^3 - 36x = x(x^2 - 36) = x(x-6)(x+6)
The given function h(x) is undefined when the denominator = 0, which happens at {-6, 0, 6}.
Thus, the domain is "the set of all real numbers not equal to -6, 0 or 6."
Symbolically, the domain is (-infinity, -6) ∪ (-6, 0) ∪ (0, 6) ∪ (6, +infinity).
Let x = the amount of time that the third person needs to work on the job to add up to one
1 = 1/2 + 1/3 + x
1 - 1/2 - 1/3 = x
To subtract the fractions we need to put them all over a common denominator. Let's use 3*2 = 6 as the denominator; so 1 = 6/6, 1/2 = 3/6, 1/3 = 2/6:
6/6 - 3/6 - 2/6 = x
1/6 = x
The third person must work 1/6 time on the project.
The advantage of the graphing calculator is that you just have to find two independent equations, introduce them in the calculator and it will find the intersection point ot the two graphs.
The equations that you have to introduce are:
1) y = 2.25x + 24
2) y = 2.75x + 23
The algebraic solution, which will give you the same coordinates of the intersection point of the graphs is
2.25x + 24 = 2.75x + 23
2.75x - 2.25x = 24 - 23
0.5x = 1 => x 1 /0.5 = 2.
Answer: 2
(x/(2x))+((2*3)/(2x))=3/4
(x+6)/2x=3/4
4x+24=6x
24=2x
x=12
