Answer:
{-5, -2}
Step-by-step explanation:
In a case like this please use parentheses to remove ambiguities. If I were to take your "x+5/x+2" literally, I'd have to write x plus 5/x plus 2.
I suspect that you actually meant (x + 5) / (x + 2), and will start with that.
First of all, this function is not defined at x = -5 or at x = -2. Thus, -5 and -2 are critical points.
Secondly, there may be one or more critical points beyond this. To find out, we have to differentiate (x+5)/(x+2):
(x + 2)(1) - (x + 5)(1)
f '(x) = ------------------------------
(x + 2)
Here it's clear that x cannot = -2, which would cause division by zero.
Thus, our critical values are {-5, -2}.
Answer:
a. 4/7
e. 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
For each part of the question, count the dots that meet the first requirement, and count the dots that meet the "fraction of ..." requirement. The desired fraction is the ratio of these numbers. In the answers above, we have reduced the fractions to lowest terms, but the question does not seem to require that.
__
a. The desired fraction is ...
(dots in the triangle)/(all dots) = 16/28 = 4/7
__
e. (dots in the rectangle not in the circle)/(dots in the rectangle) = 9/12 = 3/4
