Answer: No, it's not the solution

Explanation:

Let's plug x = -5 into the second equation

y = 2x+10

y = 2(-5)+10

y = -10+10

y = 0

This shows that (-5,0) is the actual solution, instead of (-5,2)

In April, The Kazbaas drove 760 miles in their tour van.

Answer:

£135.98

Step-by-step explanation:

$(760\text{ mi})\dfrac{1\text{ gal}}{29.5\text{ mi}}\cdot\dfrac{4.55\text{ L}}{1\text{ gal}}\cdot\dfrac{\pounds1.16}{1\text{ L}}=\dfrac{760\cdot4.55\cdot\pounds1.16}{29.5}\\\\=\boxed{\pounds135.98}$

It cost £135.98 for petrol in April.

Why the denator in the numerator stay the same

nika2105 [10]

Because it is like having a unit of measurement that is set
lets say that in a certain country, one serving of bread is 1/2 of the standard loaf
and if you have 3 servings, you have 3/2 loaf so the bottom number tells you how many parts out of 1 whole you have

Given the functionf ( x ) = x^2 + 7 x + 10/ x^2 + 9 x + 20

vladimir1956 [14]

<em>x = -4 is a vertical asymptote for the function.</em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The graph of $y=f(x)$ is a vertical has an asymptote at $x=a$ if at least one of the following statements is true:

$1) \ \underset{x\rightarrow a^{-}}{lim}f(x)=\infty\\ \\ 2) \ \underset{x\rightarrow a^{-}}{lim}f(x)=-\infty \\ \\ 3) \ \underset{x\rightarrow a^{+}}{lim}f(x)=\infty \\ \\ 4) \ \underset{x\rightarrow a^{+}}{lim}f(x)=\infty$

The function is:

$f(x)=\frac{x^2+7x+10}{x^2+9x+20}$

First of all, let't factor out:

$f(x)=\frac{x^2+5x+2x+10}{x^2+5x+4x+20} \\ \\ f(x)=\frac{x(x+5)+2(x+5)}{x(x+5)+4(x+5)} \\ \\ f(x)=\frac{(x+5)(x+2)}{(x+5)(x+4)} \\ \\ f(x)=\frac{(x+2)}{(x+4)}, \ x\neq 5$

From here:

$\bullet \ When \ x \ approaches \ -4 \ on \ the \ right: \\ \\ \underset{x\rightarrow -4^{+}}{lim}\frac{(x+2)}{(x+4)}=? \\ \\ \underset{x\rightarrow -4^{+}}{lim}\frac{(-4^{+}+2)}{(-4^{+}+4)} \\ \\ \\ The \ numerator \ is \ negative \ and \ the \ denominator \\ is \ a \ small \ positive \ number. \ So: \\ \\ \underset{x\rightarrow -4^{+}}{lim}\frac{(x+2)}{(x+4)}=-\infty$

$\bullet \ When \ x \ approaches \ -4 \ on \ the \ left: \\ \\ \underset{x\rightarrow -4^{-}}{lim}\frac{(x+2)}{(x+4)}=? \\ \\ \underset{x\rightarrow -4^{-}}{lim}\frac{(-4^{-}+2)}{(-4^{-}+4)} \\ \\ \\ The \ numerator \ is \ a \ negative \ and \ the \ denominator \\ is \ a \ small \ negative \ number \ too. \ So: \\ \\ \underset{x\rightarrow -4^{-}}{lim}\frac{(x+2)}{(x+4)}=+\infty$

Accordingly:

$x=-4 \ is \ a \ vertical \ asymptote \ for \\ \\ f(x)=\frac{x^2+5x+2x+10}{x^2+5x+4x+20}$
