Notice that we can simplify both numerator and denominator of our rational function. In the numerator we have a quadratic expression of the form

. To to simplify it, we are going to find tow numbers that add to 2 and multiply to -8; those numbers are 4 and -2.

In the denominator we have a difference of squares:

Now we can rewrite our function:

From the simplified form of our rational function we can infer that its graph has two vertical asymptotes at

and
We can conclude that the graphic of our rational function is:
ANSWER
x = 1.2226
EXPLANATION
To solve this equation we have to apply the property of the logarithm of the base,

Thus, we can apply the natural logarithm - whose base is e, to both sides of the equation,

Now we apply the property of the logarithm of a power,

In our equation,

Then divide both sides by 4 and solve,

The solution to this equation is x = 1.2226, rounded to four decimal places.
Answer:
kitchen sink faucet stream
Step-by-step explanation:
with kitchen sink faucet you fill 0.05gallons of water per second you get that by dividing 0.5 by 10
and the bathroom sink faucet does 0.041gallons of water per second you get that by dividing 0.75 by 18
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the tangent and sine ratios in the right triangle EFG
tan60° =
=
=
( multiply both sides by EG )
EG × tan60° = 28 ( divide both sides by tan60° )
EG =
≈ 16.2 in ( to the nearest tenth )
--------------------------------------------------------------
sin60° =
=
=
( multiply both sides by EF )
EF × sin60° = 28 ( divide both sides by sin60° )
EF =
≈ 32.3 in ( to the nearest tenth )
