Find where the equation is undefined ( when the denominator is equal to 0.
Since they say x = 5, replace x in the equation see which ones equal o:
5-5 = 0
So we know the denominator has to be (x-5), this now narrows it down to the first two answers.
To find the horizontal asymptote, we need to look at an equation for a rational function: R(x) = ax^n / bx^m, where n is the degree of the numerator and m is the degree of the denominator.
In the equations given neither the numerator or denominators have an exponent ( neither are raised to a power)
so the degrees would be equal.
Since they are equal the horizontal asymptote is the y-intercept, which is given as -2.
This makes the first choice the correct answer.
the solid is made up of 2 regular octagons, 8 sides, joined up by 8 rectangles, one on each side towards the other octagonal face.
from the figure, we can see that the apothem is 5 for the octagons, and since each side is 3 cm long, the perimeter of one octagon is 3*8 = 24.
the standing up sides are simply rectangles of 8x3.
if we can just get the area of all those ten figures, and sum them up, that'd be the area of the solid.
