Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m =
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 100) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 200) ← 2 points on the line
m = =
= 50
The line crosses the y- axis at (0, 100 ) ⇒ c = 100
y = 50x + 100 ← equation of line
where y is monthly savings and x the time in months
(b)
Slope is the monthly deposit , that is $50 per month
The y- intercept indicates the original amount in her account , that is $100

Answer:
A) see attached for a graph. Range: (-∞, 7]
B) asymptotes: x = 1, y = -2, y = -1
C) (x → -∞, y → -2), (x → ∞, y → -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Part A</h3>A graphing calculator is useful for graphing the function. We note that the part for x > 1 can be simplified:
This has a vertical asymptote at x=1, and a hole at x=2.
The function for x ≤ 1 is an ordinary exponential function, shifted left 1 unit and down 2 units. Its maximum value of 3^-2 = 7 is found at x=1.
The graph is attached.
The range of the function is (-∞, 7].

<h3>Part B</h3>As we mentioned in Part A, there is a vertical asymptote at x = 1. This is where the denominator (x-1) is zero.
The exponential function has a horizontal asymptote of y = -2; the rational function has a horizontal asymptote of y = (-x/x) = -1. The horizontal asymptote of the exponential would ordinarily be y=0, but this function has been translated down 2 units.
__
<h3>Part C</h3>The end behavior is defined by the horizontal asymptotes:
for x → -∞, y → -2
for x → ∞, y → -1
