X=3 is a vertical line . The question is "Is this line a vertical asymptotefor the function f(x)?". Vertical asymptote is vertical line near which the function grows without bound.
The function f(x)=5x-15/x-3 is not asymptotic to the line x=3, because for x=3 f(x)=5*3-15/3-3=0/0=0 . So, there is a value for x=3 and the function f(x) does not grow near x=3 without bound.

A contaminant is leaking into a lake at a rate of R(t) = 1400e0.06t gallons/h. Enzymes have been added to the lake that neutrali
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of leakage, R(t) = 1400 e^0.06t gallons/h

fraction remains , S(t) = e^(-0.32t)

initial contaminant = 1000 gallon

gallons contaminant present after t hour is S(t) R(t)

G(t) = S(t) R(t)

G(t) = 1400 e^{0.06t}\times e^{-0.32t}

G(t) = 1400 e^{- 0.26t}

Put t = 18 hours

G(t) = 1400 e^{- 0.26\times 18}

Taking log on both the sides

ln G = ln 1400 - 0.26 x 18

ln G = 7.244 - 4.68

ln G = 2.564

G = 13 gallons

Polygon YYY has an area of 111111 square units. Celia drew a scaled version of Polygon YYY using a scale factor of 333 and label
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

The ratio of the areas =  the ratio of the squares of the scale factor.

So the area of Z is  3^2 * 11  =  99 sq units.

Explain why the vertical line test is used to determine if a graph represents a function.
Aleksandr [31]
Hi there Mary Dominguez, So what a vertical line test down is to find out if a particular graph is a function or not. What you do is take a vertical strait line and move it right to left or left to right, depending on your preference, along the X axis. The reason this works is a function can not have an x that has 2 different y values. If we use the vertical line test on a graph with say a graph that has (2,3) and (2,4) we can use the vertical line test and see that the line hits 2 points at once which means its not a function :)

Assume r= t  not sure if you mistyped this.
t =  15 min

T(t)  = 68 (0.5)^(15/10) = 24 Celsius

31 = (0.5)^(t/10) take ln

ln31 = (t/10) ln (0.5) + ln68

t = (ln32 - ln 68/ln0.5) * 10 = 11.3 min

A function f(x) has x intercepts of -3 and -5. What is the constant term in the function?
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The constant term in the function is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

f(x)=x^{2}+8x+b

where

b is the y-intercept or the constant term of the function

Remember that

The x-intercept is the value of x when the value of the function is equal to zero

so

For x=-3 ----> f(x)=0

For x=-5 ----> f(x)=0

substitute any of the intercepts in the function

For x=-3

0=(-3)^{2}+8(-3)+b

0=9-24+b

0=-15+b

b=15

f(x)=x^{2}+8x+15

Verify with the other intercept

For x=-5

0=(-5)^{2}+8(-5)+15

0=25-40+15

0=0 ---> is true

therefore

The constant term in the function is 5
