Simplifying h(x) gives
h(x) = (x² - 3x - 4) / (x + 2)
h(x) = ((x² + 4x + 4) - 4x - 4 - 3x - 4) / (x + 2)
h(x) = ((x + 2)² - 7x - 8) / (x + 2)
h(x) = ((x + 2)² - 7 (x + 2) - 14 - 8) / (x + 2)
h(x) = ((x + 2)² - 7 (x + 2) - 22) / (x + 2)
h(x) = (x + 2) - 7 - 22/(x + 2)
h(x) = x - 5 - 22/(x + 2)
An oblique asymptote of h(x) is a linear function p(x) = ax + b such that
In the simplified form of h(x), taking the limit as x gets arbitrarily large, we obviously have -22/(x + 2) converging to 0, while x - 5 approaches either +∞ or -∞. If we let p(x) = x - 5, however, we do have h(x) - p(x) approaching 0. So the oblique asymptote is the line y = x - 5.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>x = - 9</em>
- Step-by-step explanation:
<em>6x + 10 = 4x - 8</em>
<em>6x - 4x = - 10 - 8</em>
<em>2x = - 18</em>
<em>x = - 18 : 2</em>
<em>x = - 9</em>
Divide 33 by three because there are 3 feet in a yard
There are 11
Step-by-step explanation:
I am not sure this is a square.
this could be a rectangle.
to be safe, I am following that path.
in a rectangle opposite sides are of equal length.
that means
y - 1 = 2y - 7
y = 2y - 6
0 = y - 6
y = 6
3x - 4 = 3y - 13
3x - 4 = 3×6 - 13
3x - 4 = 18 - 13 = 5
3x = 9
x = 3
as it turns out, it is a square, so we could have used every side expression to be equal with every other side expression, but better safe than sorry ...
