Imagine that this curve is a roller coaster. A dot on the roller coaster would be a car for a person to sit in, so to speak. As this car moves to the right, the car ultimately moves downward. So this means that as x gets larger, y gets smaller. Put another way: as x approaches infinity, f(x) approaches negative infinity.
Similarly, we can move the other way to work our way to the left. Moving to the left has us go up this time. As x approaches negative infinity, f(x) approaches positive infinity
These two facts point to choice B as the final answer
2 1/5* 4
= (11/5) * 4
= 44/5
= (40+ 4)/5
= 40/5+ 4/5
= 8+ 4/5
= 8 4/5
The final answer is 8 4/5~
Its in the hundreths place
7.
1) Given (info from top)
2) <BCA =~ <DCE (vertical angles theorem)
3) triangle BCA =~ triangle DCE (SAS)
4) BA =~ ED (CPCTC)
=~ means congruent
8.
1) Given
2) CA =~ AC (reflexive property of equality)
3) triangle ACB =~ triangle ACD (ASA)
4) BC =~ CD (CPCTC)
Hope this helps!! :)
