Let f(x) = p(x)/q(x), where p and q are polynomials and reduced to lowest terms. (If p and q have a common factor, then they contribute removable discontinuities ('holes').)
Write this in cases:
(i) If deg p(x) ≤ deg q(x), then f(x) is a proper rational function, and lim(x→ ±∞) f(x) = constant.
If deg p(x) < deg q(x), then these limits equal 0, thus yielding the horizontal asymptote y = 0.
If deg p(x) = deg q(x), then these limits equal a/b, where a and b are the leading coefficients of p(x) and q(x), respectively. Hence, we have the horizontal asymptote y = a/b.
Note that there are no obliques asymptotes in this case. ------------- (ii) If deg p(x) > deg q(x), then f(x) is an improper rational function.
By long division, we can write f(x) = g(x) + r(x)/q(x), where g(x) and r(x) are polynomials and deg r(x) < deg q(x).
As in (i), note that lim(x→ ±∞) [f(x) - g(x)] = lim(x→ ±∞) r(x)/q(x) = 0. Hence, y = g(x) is an asymptote. (In particular, if deg g(x) = 1, then this is an oblique asymptote.)
This time, note that there are no horizontal asymptotes. ------------------ In summary, the degrees of p(x) and q(x) control which kind of asymptote we have.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
12 square cm correct to 2 significant figures
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a Rectangle = L X B = 2.1 X 5.6 = 11.76 square cm
To round your result to 2 significant figure, we start counting from the left from the first non-zero digit.
The first two digits are 11 but because the number after is 7 (greater than 4), we round up to 12.
11.76 square cm = 12 square cm correct to 2 significant figures
1pound is equal to 16 ounces i get this thru conversion table so you will multiply 8.34 pound to 16 so the answer is 133.44 ounces
First day = 10 +8
=18
second day = 8+8
=16
3rd=16
4th= 16
5th=16
6th=16
16+16+16+16+16+18
=80+18
=98
