Answer: 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find the slope of AB. To do that, I will use the equation

y2 - y1/x2 - x1

Plug in the coordinates.

11 - 13/6 - 1

Simplify.

-2/5

<u>Our slope for line AB is -2/5</u>. Now we can find the slope that is perpendicular to it that passes through the point (5, 8).

To do that, just take the slope from AB and make it an opposite value and reciprocal.

Our slope is 5/2.

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

The horizontal asymptote can be described by the line y = 6

The vertical asymptote can be described by the line x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

* <em>Lets the meaning of vertical and horizontal asymptotes</em>

- <u><em>Vertical asymptotes</em></u> are vertical lines which correspond to the zeroes

  of the denominator of a rational function

- <u><em>A horizontal asymptote</em></u> is a y-value on a graph which a function

 approaches but does not actually reach

- If the degree of the numerator is less than the degree of the

 denominator, then there is a horizontal asymptote at y = 0

- If the degree of the numerator is greater than the degree of the

 denominator, then there is no horizontal asymptote

- If the degree of the numerator is equal the degree of the denominator,

 then there is a horizontal asymptote at y = leading coefficient of the

 numerator ÷ leading coefficient of the denominator

* <em>Lets solve the problem</em>

∵ f(x)=\frac{6x}{x+2}

∵ The numerator is 6x

∵ The denominator is x + 2

∴ The numerator and the denominator have same degree

∵ The leading coefficient of the numerator is 6

∵ The leading coefficient of the denominator is 1

∴ There is a horizontal asymptote at y = 6/1

∴ <em>The horizontal asymptote can be described by the line y = 6</em>

- Put the denominator equal zero to find its zeroes

∵ The denominator is x + 2

∴ x + 2 = 0

- Subtract 2 from both sides

∴ x = -2

∴ <em>The vertical asymptote can be described by the line x = -2</em>

When an equation is in standard form, x isn't negative so she should divide everything by a negative 1 to change it into a positive equation.
