1. The vertical asymptote requires the denominator have a zero at that location. The x-intercept requires the numerator have a zero at that location. The horizontal asymptote amounts to a multiplier of the function:
... y = 2(x +5)/(x -3)
2. The vertical asymptote requires the denominator have a zero at that location. The oblique asymptote is an add-on
... y = 1/(x +1) +(x +2)
... y = (x² +3x +3)/(x +1)
<span>To subtract 3 3/8 from 5 1/2,
by turning into fractions
</span><span>[(5x2)+1]/2 = 11/2
</span><span>[(3x8)+3]/8 = 27/8
</span><span> 11/2 - 27/8
</span>To subtract fractions, your denominator needs to have the same number. so multiply it by 4
44/8 - 27/8 = (44-27)/8 = 17/8.
17 / 8 pounds or 2 and 1/8 because 17 / 8 = 2 remainder 1.
<span>In terms of weight that is 2.125 pounds.</span>
Y=mx+b
b is the y intercept, and the y intercept is 1.5, (I graphed it), and the slope of the line is (-6/-7), and since they are both negative, 6/7.
so: y=6/7x+1.5
