First of all, we can observe that
So the expression becomes
This means that the expression is defined for every 
Now, since the denominator is always positive (when it exists), the fraction can only be positive if the denominator is also positive: we must ask
Since we can't accept 3 as an answer, the actual solution set is
![(-\infty,-2] \cup [2,3) \cup (3,\infty)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28-%5Cinfty%2C-2%5D%20%5Ccup%20%5B2%2C3%29%20%5Ccup%20%283%2C%5Cinfty%29)
Answer:
Directions - Identify the key components, create an exponential equation, then answer the questions.
Exponential Form: y=a\cdot b^{x},\ a\ is\ the\ \textit{starting}\ \textit{value},\ b\ is\ the\ base\ (rate).\y=a⋅b
x
, a is the starting value, b is the base (rate).
In a small town, the stray dog population is rapidly increasing. there are currently 15 stray dogs, and it is estimated that the population will triple every year. How many dogs will there be after 1 year? 2 years? 3 years?
1) a = 15
4) Dogs after 1 years = 45
2) b = 3
5) Dogs after 2 years = 135
3) Equation:
y= 15 ×3x
6) Dogs after 3 years =
405
Step-by-step explanation:
10 and 2/3 = 32/3
32/3 x 8 = 256/3
256/3 = 85.33333333333 repeating
Answer: Charity is 36 years old today.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = Present age of daughter.
Age of Charity = 4x
Age of her husband = 4x+6
After 10 years,
Age of daughter = x+10
Age of Charity = 4x+10
Age of her husband = 4x+6+10=4x+16
As per given,
Present age of Charity = 4(9)=36 years
Hence, Charity is 36 years old today.
First find slope
(7-5)/(3-5) = 2/-2 = -1
Slope intercept: y = mx + b
Y = -1x + b, plug in point
5 = -1(5) + b, b = 10
Equation: y = -1x + 10
