Answer:

y =3x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of an equation is expressed as;

y = mx+c

m is the slope

c is the intercept

Get the intercept

Substitute m = 3 and (-2,-1) into y = mx+c

-1 = 3(-2)+c

-1 = -6 + c

c = -1+6

c = 5

Get the equation.

Recall that y = mx+c

y =3x + 5

This gives the required equation

i) The given function is

$f(x)=\frac{x^2+4x-4}{x^2-2x-8}$

We can rewrite in factored form to obtain;

$f(x)=\frac{x^2+4x-4}{x^2-2x-8}$

$f(x)=\frac{(x+2\sqrt{2}+2)(x-2\sqrt{2}+2)}{(x-4)(x+2)}$

The domain is

$(x-4)(x+2)\ne0$

$(x-4)\ne0,(x+2)\ne0$

$x\ne4,x\ne-2$

ii) To find the vertical asymptotes equate the denominator to zero.

$(x-4)(x+2)=0$

$(x-4)=0,(x+2)=0$

$x=4,x=-2$

iii) To find the roots, equate the numerator to zero.

$(x+2\sqrt{2}+2)(x-2\sqrt{2}+2)=0}$

$(x+2\sqrt{2}+2)=0,(x-2\sqrt{2}+2)=0}$

$(x=-2\sqrt{2}-2,x=2\sqrt{2}-2)}$

iv) To find the y-intercept, substitute $x=0$ into the equation.

$f(0)=\frac{0^2+4(0)-4}{0^2-2(0)-8}$

We simplify to obtain;

$f(0)=\frac{-4}{-8}$

$f(0)=\frac{1}{2}$

v) The horizontal asymptote is

$lim_{\to \infty}\frac{x^2+4x-4}{x^2-2x-8}=1$

The equation of the horizontal asymptote is y=1

vi) The function does not have a variable factor that is common to both the numerator and the denominator.

The function has no holes in it.

vii) The given function is a proper rational function.

Proper rational functions do not have oblique asymptotes.

You draw a card at random from a deck that contains 333 black cards and 777 red cards. What is \text{P(draw a black card})P(draw

enot [183]

Answer:

The probability of picking a black card at random, from a deck with 3 black cards and 7 red ones is 0.3.

Step-by-step explanation:

We will assume that we have 3 black cards and 7 black cards, for a total of 10 cards. Since we are taking one card at random, we can assume that each card is equally likely to be drawn. We have the following event A: The drawn card is a black. We will find the probability of A as counting the number of outcomes that make A to occur and divide it by the total number of possibilities. We are drawing one card, so we have 10 possibilities to be picked. Out of those 10, only 3 cards are black, hence we have 3 possibilites of picking a black card.

Then,

P(A) = 3/10 = 0.3.
