The function has a horizontal asymptote at y = 3.
The function has a vertical asymptote at x = -3.
The function has a  vertical intercept of 1.
The function has a zero of x = -2.
Because the function has a zero at x = -2, and a vertical asymptote at x = -3, therefore

Write the function in the form
y = 

As x → ∞, y → k.
Because a horizontal asymptote exists at y = 3, therefore  k = 3.
A vertical intercept exists at y = 1.
The function is

Step-by-step explanation:
y2 + 4y - 5
( y + 4 )( y - 1 ) 
so you just need to break down the sum
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
The sum of money received by Ali, Carrie and Bryan is $ 740.
Step-by-step explanation:
At first we translate mathematically each sentence:
(i) <em>Ali, Carrie and Bryan received a sum of money. </em>
 - Ali's money.
 - Ali's money.
 - Bryan's money.
 - Bryan's money.
 - Carrie's money.
 - Carrie's money.
(ii) <em>Bryan's money was </em> <em> of  Ali's money</em>.
<em> of  Ali's money</em>.

 (1)
(iii) <em>The ratio of Ali's money to Carrie's money was 4 : 1</em>.
 (2)

I think it's 7 1/2 because you can turn 30 1/4 to 15/2, which simplifies to 7 1/2
