It’s a. Start at the y intercept and rise over run to the next point.
Answer:
<h2>x = -1</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the given table, we see that for <em>x = -1</em>, the function is not defined, that means that the rational function has a restriction there, and such restriction is shown as an asymptote in the graph of the function.
So, basically, we could say that the given rational function has one asymptote and it's at x = -1, which is a vertical asymptote, because all forms like x = k, are vertical lines, that is, they are parallel to the vertical axis.
Therefore, the right answer is the third choice.
We have been given that Clare made $160 babysitting last summer. She put the money in a savings account that pays 3% interest per year. If Clare doesn't touch the money in her account, she can find the amount she'll have the next year by multiplying her current amount 1.03.
We are asked to write an expression for the amount of money Clare would have after 30 years if she never withdraws money from her account.
We will use exponential growth function to solve our given problem.
An exponential growth function is in form 
, where
y = Final value,
a = Initial value,
r = Growth rate in decimal form,
x = Time.
We can see that initial value is $160. Upon substituting our given values in above formula, we will get:
To find amount of money in Clare's account after 30 years, we need to substitute 
in our equation.
Therefore, the expression 
represents the amount of money that Clare would have after 30 years.
Given parameters:
Equation:
(x-4)²=9
Problem, solve the equation by factoring and extracting the root
<u>Solution:</u>
Given equation:
(x-4)²=9
subtract 9 from both sides to equate to zero;
(x-4)² - 9 = 0
(x -4)² - 3² = 0
Now, this is similar to the concept of difference of two squares;
x² - y² = <em>(x + y)(x-y)</em>
Here x = x-4 and y = -3
So input and solve;
(x - 4 -3)(x - 4 -(-3)) = 0
(x - 7)(x - 4+3) = 0
(x -7)(x -1) = 0
S0,
x - 7 = 0 or x-1 = 0
x = 7 or 1
If we extract the square roots;
(x-4)² = 9
√(x-4)² = √9
x - 4 = 3
x = 4 + 3 = 7; this is not the only solution to the problem
So we cannot solve it by extracting the square root.
