The first stone will be 10-in wide
The last stone will be 10-in wide
The stones in the middle will be alternating between 5-in and 10-in stones, making a total of 15-in
Total width = 145-in
Width after placing first and last stones = 145 - 20 = 125-in
Number of 15-in patterns incorporated in 125-in:
125/15 = 8.33
Therefore, he will place 8 10-inch stones within and 9 5-inch stones within the patter.
The total 10-inch stones used = 8 + 2 = 10
In this question, with the help of the graph we have to find the vertical asymptote .
First let's check out what is vertical asymptote .
Vertical asymptotes are straight lines of the equation , toward which a function f(x) approaches infinitesimally closely, but never reaches the line.
And in the graph, the function approaches to 12 but never touches it .
So the vertical asymptote is x=12 .
The sum of 7/9 and 3/5 is 7/15
Slope intercept form Y=0.5x+6
