Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: If the degree (the largest exponent) of the denominator is bigger than the degree of the numerator, the horizontal asymptote is the x-axis (y = 0).
If the degree of the numerator is bigger than the denominator, there is no horizontal asymptote.
The empty jug weighs 0.75 lb
With the 3c, the total weighs 2.25 lb. That means:
3c + empty jug = 3c + 0.75 = 2.25
3c = 2.25 - 0.75
3c = 1.5
and 1c = 0.5 (so c is a constant -or the slope-)
Then the equation is:
y = 0.5x + 0.75
5x-1 is greater than or equal to -11
