Answer:

4/3 of an hour, or 1.33 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

It took Mike 1/3 of an hour to mow 1/4 of the yard. This means when it has been 1 full hour, he would have mowed 3/4 of the yard, because $\frac{1}{3} *3=1$ hour. Because of this, we can multiply 1/3 by 4, because he has to mow 4 parts of his lawn, and he can do 1 part in 1/3 of an hour.

$\frac{1}{3} *\frac{4}{4} =4/3$ hours

What is the equation of the asymptote? f (x) = 3^x-5+1<br> y=?

Natasha_Volkova [10]

The equation of the asymptote is $y=1$

Explanation:

The given equation is $f(x)=3^{x-5}+1$

We need to determine the horizontal asymptote of the equation.

The given equation is of the exponential function of the form $f(x)=c \cdot n^{a x+b}+k$ and has a horizontal asymptote $y=k$

Hence, from the above equation, the value of k is 1.

Therefore, we have,

$k=1$

Thus, the horizontal asymptote is $y=1$

Therefore, the asymptote of the equation is $y=1$
