What is the discontinuity of the function f(x)= x^2-4x-12/x+2. PLEASE ASAP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!

Answers

Answer 1

Hello!

[tex]\large\boxed{\text{Infinite discontinuity at x = 2}}[/tex]

[tex]f(x) = \frac{x^{2} - 4x - 12}{x - 2}[/tex]

Recall that in a rational function, the denominator contains the vertical asymptote (an infinite discontinuity).

If terms can be canceled from the denominator and the numerator, then the function contains a hole. We can check whether this function contains such by factoring:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{(x - 6)(x + 2)}{x - 2}[/tex]

There is no common factor, so the function only contains a discontinuity at its vertical asymptote.

Find the vertical asymptote by setting the denominator equal to 0:

x - 2 = 0

x = 2.

What is the volume of the following triangular pyramid?

Answers

Answer:

The volume of the triangular  pyramid

         V = 566.66 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

The volume of the triangular  pyramid

            [tex]= \frac{1}{3} X base area X height[/tex]

Base area  = Area of the triangle

             [tex]A= \frac{1}{2} X base X height[/tex]

 Given the base of the triangle  (b) = 17in

  Given Height of the triangle (h ) =10 in

    [tex]A= \frac{1}{2}( 17 ) (10) = 85[/tex]

The base area of the pyramid ( A) = 85 in²

Step(ii):-

Given the height of the pyramid  (h) = 20in

The volume of the triangular  pyramid

            [tex]= \frac{1}{3} X base area X height[/tex]

The volume of the triangular  pyramid

         = [tex]= \frac{1}{3}( 85)(20) = 566.66[/tex]

Final answer:-

The volume of the triangular  pyramid

         V = 566.66 in³

An economy package of cups has 960 green cups. If the green cups are 40% of the total package, how many cups are in the package?

Answers

Answer: 2400 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

total # of cups = x

# of green cups = 960

% of green cups of total = 40%

# green cups/# of total cups = % of green cups/% of total cups

960/x = 4/10

9600 = 4x

2400 = x

What is the measure of angle x?

Answers

Answer:

x = 60°

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that ∠H is 30° and we know that ∠J is 90° thanks to the red box. The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180°, so we can use this to solve for x.

x + 30 + 90 = 180

x + 120 = 180

x = 60

Therefore, it is 60°.

Now the population of bacteria is two to the fourth power times two to the sixth power. Expressed as a power, how many bacteria is on the petri dish after 150 minutes?

Answers

Answer: 2¹⁰ bacteria

Step-by-step explanation:

There were originally 2⁴ bacteria in the dish.

After 150 minutes this number doubled 6 times which means it increased by 2⁶.

The number of bacteria will become:

= 2⁴ * 2⁶

= 2⁴⁺⁶

= 2¹⁰ bacteria

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\boxed{\pink{\bf \leadsto Option \ A \ is \ correct . }}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

For the number line refer to the attachment :

A linear inequality is given to us . And we need to find the correct number line. So the given linear inequality is :-

[tex]\bf \implies 5x + 3 > 4x + 7 \\\\\bf\implies 5x - 4x > 7 - 3 \\\\\bf\implies \boxed{\red{\bf x > 4 }}[/tex]

This implies that the value of x is Greater than 4 . That is the inequality can have all the values more than 4. So when we see the given number lines we see that the first number line represents all values greater than 4 .

Hence the first graph of the solution set represents the given linear inequality.

Answers:

(a) Yes this sequence is arithmetic.(b) The common difference is d = -3

=================================================

Explanation:

This sequence is arithmetic because we're adding -3 to each term. This is the same as subtracting 3 from each term.

-13 + (-3) = -13 - 3 = -16

-16 + (-3) = -16 - 3 = -19

-19 + (-3) = -19 - 3 = -22

and so on. The term we add on each time is the common difference. It describes how the terms are spaced out, and how to generate each new term. The negative common difference is due to the sequence terms decreasing. An arithmetic sequence and a linear function are closely related ideas.
