Answer:

b = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + b ( m is the slope and b the y- intercept )

Here m = - 2 , then

y = - 2x + b ← is the partial equation

To find b substitute (5, - 7 ) into the partial equation

- 7 = - 10 + b ⇒ b = - 7 + 10 = 3

What is the equation of the line that represents the horizontal asymptote of the function f(x)=25,000(1+0.025)^(x)?

posledela

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The horizontal asymptote of a function f(x) is gotten by finding the limit as x ⇒ ∞ or x ⇒ -∞. If the limit gives you a finite value, then your asymptote is at that point.

$\lim_{x \to \infty} f(x)=A\\\\or\\\\ \lim_{x \to -\infty} f(x)=A\\\\where\ A\ is\ a\ finite\ value.\\\\Given\ that \ f(x) =25000(1+0.025)^x\\\\ \lim_{x \to \infty} f(x)= \lim_{x \to \infty} [25000(1+0.025)^x]= \lim_{x \to \infty} [25000(1.025)^x]\\=25000 \lim_{x \to \infty} [(1.025)^x]=25000(\infty)=\infty\\\\ \lim_{x \to -\infty} f(x)= \lim_{x \to -\infty} [25000(1+0.025)^x]= \lim_{x \to -\infty} [25000(1.025)^x]\\=25000 \lim_{x \to -\infty} [(1.025)^x]=25000(0)=0\\\\$

$Since\ \lim_{x \to -\infty} f(x)=0\ is\ a\ finite\ value,hence:\\\\Hence\ the\ horizontal\ asymtotes\ is\ at\ y=0$
