It isn't true.
A theoretical field of grass sized 100ft by 10ft will have an area of 1000ft^2.
Hello!
The two types of asymptotes you can find from a rational function are vertical and horizontal asymptotes.
Vertical asymptotes are determined by setting the denominator of a rational function to zero and then by solving for x.
Horizontal asymptotes are determined by:
1. If the degree of the numerator < degree of denominator, then the line, y = 0 is the horizontal asymptote.
2. If the degree of the numerator = degree of denominator, then y = leading coefficient of numerator / leading coefficient of denominator is the horizontal asymptote.
3. If degree of numerator > degree of denominator, then there is an oblique asymptote, but no horizontal asymptote.
Hopefully this makes sense! (I had to bring out my math notes, my handwriting is actually disgusting.)
Campers = y and counselors = x.....1 counselor to 5 campers
y = kx
k = y/x
k = 5/1
y = 5x
lets check..
y = 5x....lets say u have 2 counselors...sub in 2 for x
y = 5(2)
y = 10....so when there is 2 counselors, there are 10 campers
y = 5x...lets say u have 3 counselors...sub in 3 for x
y = 5(3)
y = 15...so when there are 3 counselors, there are 15 campers
2/10 reduces to 1/5
3/15 reduces to 1/5
so yes, this is a direct variation with ur equation being y = 5x
