Answer:

The value of q and p is 4 and -24  respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Being f(x)=\frac{p+8}{x-q} , the line x=4 is a vertical asymptote to the graph of f(x).  The line r is an asymptote of a function if the graph of the function is infinitely close to the line r. That is, an asymptote is a line to which a function approaches indefinitely, without ever touching it.

Being a rational function that which can be expressed as the quotient of two polynomials, a vertical asymptote occurs when the denominator is 0, that is, where the function is not defined. In this case:

x - q= 0

Solving:

x= q

Being the line x=4 the vertical asymptote, then

<u><em>4=q</em></u>

Then the function f (x) is:

f(x)=y=\frac{p+8}{x-4}

The y intercept is (0,4). This is, x= 0 and y=4. Replacing:

4=\frac{p+8}{0-4}

Solving:

4=\frac{p+8}{-4}

4*(-4)= p+8

-16= p+8

-16 - 8= p

<u><em>-24= p</em></u>

<u><em>The value of q and p is 4 and -24  respectively.</em></u>

F(x) = x2 + 9, g(x) = *square root of* x + 8, <br><br> find g(f(x))
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

  g(f(x)) = √(x^2 +17)

Step-by-step explanation:

For ...

  f(x) = x^2 +9

  g(x) = √(x +8)

The definition of g(f(x)) is ...

  g(f(x)) = g(x^2 +9) = √((x^2 +9) +8)

  g(f(x)) = √(x^2 +17)

A white-tailed deer can sprint at speeds up to 30 miles per hour. American bison can run at speeds up to 3,520 feet per minute.
Sphinxa [80]
In 1 minute, bison runs 3520 feet
In 60 minutes, the bison would run
3520*60 feet
211200 feet per hour.
These are equivalent to;
40 miles per hour since 1 mile is equivalent to 5280 feet.
The bison is faster by 10 miles per hour
