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>

If a car can drive 62 miles on 3 gallons of gas, how many gallons of gas will it use to travel 231 miles?
aksik [14]

Answer:

11 gallons of gas is needed to travel 231 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a proportion for this problem.

<em>For every 62 miles, you use 3 gallons of gas. </em>

\frac{62}{3}*\frac{231}{?}

Now, let's cross multiply.

\frac{693}{62} ≈ 11

So, you will need about 11 gallons of gas to travel 231 miles.
