asymptote? Check all that apply.
F(x) =X/(x-4)(x+2)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 4  &  x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

For rational functions (functions which themselves are a fraction, with polynomial pieces in the numerator and polynomial pieces in the denominator), these functions have "discontinuities" anywhere the denominator is equal to zero.  Usually, those discontinuities are "vertical asymptotes".  Occasionally, those discontinuities are "holes".

A discontinuity is a "hole," only if both the numerator AND the denominator are zero for that same value of x.  If that value of x doesn't make the numerator zero (it only makes the denominator zero), the discontinuity is just a vertical asymptote.

Finding the discontinuities:

To find the discontinuities, we'll be making an entirely separate equation.  It's not the function, it's not using algebra to change both sides of the equation/function we started with ... it's pretty much just like scratch work to figure out something that you can use later (although, your teacher may want to see your work on how you found them).

The equation we need for this is the denominator of our rational function set equal to zero:

[tex](x-4)(x+2)=0[/tex]

Note, this equation doesn't have a denominator.  It's not the original function.  It's like scratch work.  This equation is designed as if we want the denominator of our function to be zero, and to find the values of x that will make us divide by zero in the original function.

There are many ways to solve this equation.  The easiest is remembering the zero product property.  The Zero Product property states that if the product of two things is equal to zero, then at least one of the original things had to be zero:  [tex]\text{If }a*b=0,\text{ then }a=0\text{ or }b=0 \text{ (or both)}[/tex]

Noting that our equation is a product of two things, and is equal to zero, the zero product property allows us to separate our equation into two equations:

[tex]x-4=0, \text{ or } x+2=0[/tex]

Solving each equation by isolating x, by adding or subtracting the relevant number from both sides of the equations:

[tex]x=4, \text{ or } x=-2[/tex]

So these values of x will make the denominator of the original function zero.  These are both discontinuities of the function, so while when we were solving for values of x that would make the denominator zero, it was appropriate to say "or", we know that both of these values are discontinuities and now we list them both saying "and":

Discontinuities: [tex]x=4 \text{ and } x=-2[/tex]

But wait!  Are they holes, or are they just vertical asymptotes?  Do we have one of each?

Testing to see if the discontinuities are asymptotes:

To test and see if the discontinuities we've found are holes, we need to substitute them into the numerator of the original function, and see the result.... but just the numerator (we already know they will make the denominator zero, and we can't divide by zero)

Since the numerator is just x, we're checking to see if 4=0, or if -2=0.  They don't.  So, for this function, both of the discontinuities are vertical asymptotes.

Answer:

The dog is 16 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

X/4 + 6 = X/8 + 8

X/4-X/8 = 8-6

0.125X = 2

X = 2/0.125

X = 16

Answer:

16 years old

Step-by-step explanation

Dividing the dog’s age by 4 and adding 6

D÷4  + 6

dividing the dog’s age by 8 and adding 8

D÷8  + 8

equating both

D÷4  + 6 = D÷8 + 8

=> D÷4 - D÷8  = 2

multiplying by 8 both sides

=> 2D - D = 16

=> D = 16

hence, the dog is 16 years old

Before opening night, the cast of Wicked put on a matinee and evening dress rehearsal at the Gershwin Theatre. At the Saturday matinee, 350 people attended the show. For the Saturday evening performance, 40% more people attended the performance. If the average cost of tickets was $182, how much money did the Gershwin Theatre collect from ticket sales of the Saturday performance?

Answers

The Gershwin Theatre collected the money from ticket sales of the Saturday performance would be $89180.

What is the unitary method?

The unitary method is a method for solving a problem by the first value of a single unit and then finding the value by multiplying the single value.

At the Saturday matinee, 350 people attended the show.

The total number of people who watched the show on Saturday = 350

For the Saturday evening performance, 40% more people attended the performance.

350 x 40%

= 350 x 0.4

= 140

Total people will be = 350 + 140 = 490

If the average cost of tickets was $182

For 490 people = 490 x 182 = $89180

Hence, the Gershwin Theatre collected the money from ticket sales of the Saturday performance would be $89180.

Answer:

Option C: 41

Step-by-step explanation:

<ABD+<CBD=90

<ABD=8x+1

<CBD=6x+5

(8x+1)+(6x+5)=90

Combine like terms

(8x+6x)+(1+5)=90

14x+6=90

14x=90-6

14x=84

divide both sides by 14

x=6

Now we plug that value into <DBC = 6x+5

Let's take this problem step by step:

∠ABC is 90 degrees

 ⇒ made up of two angles ⇒ ∠ABD and ∠DBC

     ⇒ in mathematical equation form:

            [tex]ABD + DBC= ABC[/tex]

Since ∠ABD = 8x + 1 and ∠DBC = 6x+5

Subtraction is a mathematical operation that reflects the removal of things from a collection. The negative symbol represents subtraction.

Given Millie needs a total of 7.8 feet of ribbon for a school project. Also, She needs 0.7 more feet of ribbon. Therefore, the ribbon that Millie needs is,

Ribbon Millie had = Total Ribbon - ribbon that is needed

Find the probability that a student earns

Answers

Answer:

The probability that a student earns a grade of A is 1/7.

Let E be an event and S be the sample space. The probability of E, denoted by P(E) could be computed as:

P(E) = n(E) / n(S)

As the total number of students = n(S) = 35

Students getting the grade A = n(E) = 5

So, the probability that a student earns a grade of A:

                     P(E) = n(E) / n(S)

                             = 5/35

                             = 1/7

Hence, the probability that a student earns a grade of A is 1/7.

Find the x-intercept(s) and the coordinates of the vertex for the parabola y= x^2 -8x + 12. if there is more than one x-intercept, separate them with commas.

Answers

Answer:

(i) x-intercepts: (2, 0), (6, 0)

(ii) vertex : (4, -4)

Explanation:

y = x² - 8x + 12

To find x intercepts, [set y = 0]

x² - 8x + 12 = 0x² - 2x - 6x + 12 = 0x(x - 2) - 6(x - 2) = 0(x - 6)(x - 2) = 0x = 6, x = 2

x-intercepts: (2, 0), (6, 0)

To find vertex:

x = -b/2a

  = -(-8)/2(1)

  = 4

y = x² - 8x + 12

  = 4² - 8(4) + 12

  = -4

Vertex : (4, -4)

Solve the equation for y=0

x²-8x+12=0x²-6x-2x+12=0x(x-6)-2(x-6)=0(x-2)(x-6)=0x=2,6

X inetercepts (2,0) and (6,0)

(ii) find the volume of the concrete slab.
(iii) find the total surface area of the concrete slab.
(iv) find the mass of the concrete slab if the density of concrete is 2300 kg/cubic m, giving your answer in kg.

Answers

(i) The area of the cross section ABCDEFG is 1771.6cm³

(ii) The volume of the concrete lab is 212592 cm³

(iii) the total surface area of the concrete slab is 30284 cm²

(iv) The mass of the concrete slab is 40746.8 kg/m³.

Given, dimensions are 120 cm by 60 cm by

40 cm.

(i) area of cross section = 40 × 60 ₋ π(60 ₋10 ₋ 10)/2 . 1/2

                                     = 1771.6 cm³

(ii) the volume of the concrete slab = 40 × 60 × 120 ₋ 1/2 π((60 ₋ 10   ₋10)/2)² . 120

= 212592 cm³

(iii) The total surface area is:

=40 × 120 × 2 ₊ 60 × 120 ₊ 1771.6 × 2 ₊ 10 × 120 × 2 ₊ 1/2 π(60 ₋ 10 ₋10) × 120

= 30284 cm²

(iv) Mass of the concrete slab given density is 2300 kg/m³

Mass = Volume × density

Mass = 17.716 m³ ×  2300
