-- You have two angles.
-- They're complementary . . . they add up to 90 degrees.
-- One is 4 times as big as the other one.
___________________________________________
-- The smaller angle has 1 share of the 90 degrees.
-- The bigger angle has 4 shares of the 90 degrees.
-- (The smaller one is 1/4 the size of the bigger one.
The bigger one is 4 times the size of the smaller one.)
-- When you add them together, you get 5 shares, totaling 90 degrees.
-- What's the size of each share ? It's 90/5 = 18 degrees.
-- The smaller angle gets one share . . . 18 degrees.
-- The bigger angle gets 4 shares. (4 x 18) = 72 degrees.
____________________________________
Check:
-- Is the small one 1/4 the size of the big one ? 18/72 = 1/4 Yes.
-- Are they complementary ? Do they add up to 90 degrees ?
18 + 72 = 90 Yes.
yay !
<h3>Answer: Choice C</h3>
- domain = (-infinity, infinity)
- range = (-infinity, 0)
- horizontal asymptote is y = 0
========================================================
Explanation:
Since no division by zero errors are possible, and other domain restricting events are possible, we can plug in any x value we want. This means the domain is the set of all real numbers. Representing this in interval notation would be (-infinity, infinity).
The range is the set of negative real numbers, which when written in interval notation would be (-infinity, 0). This is because y = 5^x has a range of positive real numbers, and it flips when we negate the 5^x term. The graph of y = -5^x extends forever downward, and the upper limit is y = 0.
It never reaches y = 0 itself, so this is the horizontal asymptote. Think of it like an electric fence you can get closer to but can't touch.
Though you did not list the points, I can tell you how to solve for the question.
One way to tell if a point lies on a given line is to take the point and plug it into the equation. If the equation remains true, then the point lies on the line. For example:
If we have the point (1,1), we can plug in 1 for x and 1 for y and see if the equation is true:
D. it represents the product of two rational numbers and is equivalent to an irrational number
