Ples help me find slant assemtotes

FrozenT [24]

A polynomial asymptote is a function $p(x)$ such that

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\pm\infty}(f(x)-p(x))=0$

$(y+1)^2=4xy\implies y(x)=2x-1\pm2\sqrt{x^2-x}$

Since this equation defines a hyperbola, we expect the asymptotes to be lines of the form $p(x)=ax+b$ .

Ignore the negative root (we don't need it). If $y=2x-1+2\sqrt{x^2-x}$ , then we want to find constants $a,b$ such that

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty}(2x-1+2\sqrt{x^2-x}-ax-b)=0$

We have

$\sqrt{x^2-x}=\sqrt{x^2}\sqrt{1-\dfrac1x}$
$\sqrt{x^2-x}=|x|\sqrt{1-\dfrac1x}$
$\sqrt{x^2-x}=x\sqrt{1-\dfrac1x}$

since $x\to\infty$ forces us to have $x>0$ . And as $x\to\infty$ , the $\dfrac1x$ term is "negligible", so really $\sqrt{x^2-x}\approx x$ . We can then treat the limand like

$2x-1+2x-ax-b=(4-a)x-(b+1)$

which tells us that we would choose $a=4$ . You might be tempted to think $b=-1$ , but that won't be right, and that has to do with how we wrote off the "negligible" term. To find the actual value of $b$ , we have to solve for it in the following limit.

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty}(2x-1+2\sqrt{x^2-x}-4x-b)=0$

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty}(\sqrt{x^2-x}-x)=\frac{b+1}2$

We write

$(\sqrt{x^2-x}-x)\cdot\dfrac{\sqrt{x^2-x}+x}{\sqrt{x^2-x}+x}=\dfrac{(x^2-x)-x^2}{\sqrt{x^2-x}+x}=-\dfrac x{x\sqrt{1-\frac1x}+x}=-\dfrac1{\sqrt{1-\frac1x}+1}$

Now as $x\to\infty$ , we see this expression approaching $-\dfrac12$ , so that

$-\dfrac12=\dfrac{b+1}2\implies b=-2$

So one asymptote of the hyperbola is the line $y=4x-2$ .

The other asymptote is obtained similarly by examining the limit as $x\to-\infty$ .

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to-\infty}(2x-1+2\sqrt{x^2-x}-ax-b)=0$

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to-\infty}(2x-2x\sqrt{1-\frac1x}-ax-(b+1))=0$

Reduce the "negligible" term to get

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to-\infty}(-ax-(b+1))=0$

Now we take $a=0$ , and again we're careful to not pick $b=-1$ .

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to-\infty}(2x-1+2\sqrt{x^2-x}-b)=0$

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to-\infty}(x+\sqrt{x^2-x})=\frac{b+1}2$

$(x+\sqrt{x^2-x})\cdot\dfrac{x-\sqrt{x^2-x}}{x-\sqrt{x^2-x}}=\dfrac{x^2-(x^2-x)}{x-\sqrt{x^2-x}}=\dfrac
 x{x-(-x)\sqrt{1-\frac1x}}=\dfrac1{1+\sqrt{1-\frac1x}}$

This time the limit is $\dfrac12$ , so

$\dfrac12=\dfrac{b+1}2\implies b=0$

which means the other asymptote is the line $y=0$ .

Megan has a piece of fabric which is a right triangular shape. The length of leg 1 is 4 m. The length of the other leg is twice

Bess [88]

Answer:

8.94 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorum - $a^2 + b^2 = c^2$ . Use leg 1 as a, leg 2 as b, and the third side as c.

We know leg 1 is 4, and that leg 2 is twice as long as leg 1...

$(4)^2 + (4*2)^2 = c^2$

Now, we use the Order of Operations to find $c^2$ ...

$4^2+8^2=c^2\\16+64=c^2\\80=c^2$

Now, we find the square root of $c^2$ to find c...

$\sqrt{80} =8.94$

So, the length of the third side is 8.94 m.

Which statement about an input/output table is true?

GREYUIT [131]

The answer is c because the input values do not have to be consecutive, the output values can be decimals and fractions, and the output values are not always increasing as they go on, sometimes they decrease. for example, look at exponential decay and exponential growth. hope this helped (;
