It's easier to sketch if you simplify [tex]f(x)[/tex]. Factorize the numerator and denominator - simple to do with a difference of cubes or squares.

[tex]\dfrac{x^3 - 1}{x^2 - 1} = \dfrac{(x - 1)(x^2 + x + 1)}{(x - 1) (x + 1)}[/tex]

If [tex]x\neq1[/tex], we can cancel the factors of [tex]x-1[/tex]. Note that [tex]f(1)[/tex] itself is undefined. For all intents and purposes, aside from the singularity at [tex]x=1[/tex], the graph of [tex]f(x)[/tex] will look exactly like the graph of

[tex]\dfrac{x^2 + x + 1}{x + 1}[/tex]

Now, rewrite this as

[tex]\dfrac{x(x + 1) + 1}{x + 1}[/tex]

Then when [tex]x\neq-1[/tex] (note that [tex]f(-1)[/tex] is also undefined), we can cancel [tex]x+1[/tex] to reduce this to

[tex]x + \dfrac1{x+1}[/tex]

On its own, the graph of [tex]x[/tex] is a line through the origin. When [tex]x[/tex] is a large number [tex]\frac1{x+1}[/tex] is small. But as [tex]x[/tex] gets closer to -1, the rational term blows up. Effectively, this means the graph of [tex]f(x)[/tex] looks like [tex]\frac1{x+1}[/tex] around [tex]x=-1[/tex], and far enough away it looks like [tex]x[/tex].

Answer:

24ft high

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the wall is perpendicular to the ground (so that it forms a right angle, and that when the ladder is placed on the ground and leaned up against the wall that it forms a right triangle), we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to describe the situation mathematically.

For any right triangle (a triangle that has a right angle) the Pythagorean Theorem applies.  The Pythagorean Theorem describes the relationship between side lengths as [tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex], where "c" is the length of the "hypotenuse" (the side across from the right angle), and "a" and "b" are the lengths of the "legs" (the other two sides that are touching the right angle).  Since addition is commutative, it doesn't matter which leg you pick for side "a" or side "b", it only matters that the hypotenuse must be "c".

Given that the ladder is across from the right angle (the angle formed by the wall and the ground... the two "legs"), the ladder represents the hypotenuse in this situation.

Substitute known values, and simplify...

[tex]a^2+(10)^2=(26)^2[/tex]

[tex]a^2+100=676[/tex]

Subtract 100 from both sides...

[tex](a^2+100)-100=(676)-100[/tex]

[tex]a^2=576[/tex]

Apply the square root property...

[tex]\sqrt{a^2}=\pm \sqrt{576}[/tex]

[tex]a=\pm 24[/tex]

[tex]a=24[/tex]  or  [tex]a=- 24[/tex]

Since the distance height the ladder will reach is not a negative number, we reject the negative solution.  Hence, the ladder will reach 24ft high, if placed 10ft from the base of the wall.

Factorial of a positive integer is the result of the repeated multiplication of all the integers from 1 to that considered integer.

Thus, if we want to take the factorial of 'n',(n being a positive integer), then:

[tex]n! = 1 \times 2 \times \cdots \times (n-1) \times n[/tex]

We usually write it in reverse order because, in calculations, its cancellation comes useful. Thus, we have:

  (d) Gauss-Jordan Elimination

  80 carnations; 50 roses; 70 daisies

Step-by-step explanation:

The given relations can be written as equations, which can be expressed as one matrix equation. Any of the methods listed can be used to solve the matrix equation.

If we let c, r, d represent numbers of carnations, roses, and daisies ordered, respectively, then the given relations can be written as ...

  c + r + d = 200 . . . . . . 200 flowers were ordered

  0c -r +d = 20 . . . . . . . . . . . . . 20 more daisies than roses were ordered

  1.50c +5.75r +2.60d = 589.50 . . . . . the total value of the order

Written as a matrix equation, it will be of the form ...

  AX = B

where A is the square matrix of variable coefficients, X is the column vector of variables, and B is the column vector of equation right-side constants. This is the matrix equation:

  [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1&1\\0&-1&1\\1.50&5.75&2.60\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{c}c\\r\\d\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{c}200\\20\\589.50\end{array}\right][/tex]

The mathematical operations required to find the equation solution can be briefly described as ...

Inverse Matrices

The coefficient matrix is inverted and multiplied by the constant column vector:

  [tex]X=A^{-1}B[/tex]

The inversion operation requires computation of 10 determinants, of which 9 are of 2×2 matrices. That's a total of about 39 multiplications, 9 divisions, and 20 additions.

Cramer's Rule

Using Cramer's rule requires computation of 4 determinants of 3×3 matrices. The total number of operations comes to about 48 multiplications, 3 divisions, and 20 additions.

Gaussian Elimination

To obtain the upper triangular matrix that results from Gaussian Elimination requires about 11 multiplications, 11 additions, and 2 divisions. This finds the value of one variable, but the others must be found by substitution into the remaining two equations, requiring an additional 3 multiplications and 3 additions.

Gauss-Jordan Elimination

This method starts with an augmented matrix that appends column vector B to the square matrix A. The result of this is shown in the attachment. It is a diagonal matrix with the variable values a direct result of the matrix operations. The calculator's RREF( ) function performs matrix row operations to transform the augmented matrix to this Reduced Row-Echelon Form. About 6 multiplications, 6 additions, and 4 divisions are required.

The estimates of computational load presented by each of the solution methods are not intended to be exact counts. For this specific problem, some of the operations can be avoided due to the fact that some coefficients are already 1.

The end behavior of the function is the one in option C.

"One end increases and one end decreases"

Here we have the function:

f(x) = -ln(2x) + 4.

Remember that for the natural logarithm, as x tends to zero the function tends to negative infinity.

And as x tends to infinity, the natural logarithm tends to infinity.

So, for our function where we have a negative sign before the logarithm, as x tends to zero the function tends to infinity and as x tends to infinity the function tends to zero.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{y+x}{xy} =3\\x+y=3xy\\xy+x+y=4\\xy+3xy=4\\4xy=4\\xy=1\\x^2y+xy^2=xy(x+y)=xy(3xy)=3(xy)^2=3(1)^2=3[/tex]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

So we're given: [tex]\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{y} = 3[/tex] and that: [tex]xy+x+y=4[/tex]. And now we need to solve for: [tex]x^2y+xy^2[/tex].

Original equation:

[tex]\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{y} = 3[/tex]

Multiply both sides by xy

[tex]y+x=3xy[/tex]

Now take this and plug it as x+y into the second equation:

Original equation:

[tex]xy+x+y=4[/tex]

Substitute 3xy as x+y

[tex]xy + 3xy = 4[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]4xy = 4[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4

[tex]xy=1[/tex]

Divide both sides by x:

[tex]y=\frac{1}{x}[/tex]

Original equation:

[tex]x^2y+xy^2[/tex]

Substitute 1/x as y

[tex]x^2(\frac{1}{x})+x(\frac{1}{x})^2[/tex]

Multiply values:

[tex]\frac{x^2}{x}+\frac{x}{x^2}[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]x+\frac{1}{x}[/tex]

Substitute y as 1/x back into the equation:

[tex]x+y[/tex]

so now we just need to solve for x+y

Look back in steps to see how I got this:

[tex]y+x=3xy[/tex]

Divide both sides by 3

[tex]\frac{x+y}{3}=xy[/tex]

Original equation:

[tex]xy+x+y=4[/tex]

Substitute

[tex]\frac{x+y}{3}+x+y=4[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 3

[tex]x+y+3x+3y=12[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]4x+4y=12[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4

[tex]x+y=3[/tex]

So now we finally arrive to our solution 3!!!!! I swear I felt like I was going in circles, and I was about to just stop trying to solve, because I had no idea what I was doing, sorry if I made some unnecessary intermediate steps.

Why is the angle of elevation for two parasailing boats traveling at the same speed equal?

Answer:

94 hamburgers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve this question through the use of equations.

Start by defining the variables used.

Let the number of hamburgers and cheeseburgers sold on Friday be h and c respectively.

Form 2 equations using the given information.

Given that the total sold is 376,

h +c= 376 -----(1)

The number of cheeseburgers sold was thrice the number of hamburgers sold.

c= 3h -----(2)

Solving by substitution:

Substitute (2) into (1):

h +3h= 376

Now that we have an equation expressed only in terms of h, we can find the value of h.

4h= 376

Divide both sides by 4:

h= 376 ÷4

h= 94

Thus, 94 hamburgers were sold on Friday.

The value of x is 3 units.

We know that a portion of a line with two endpoints is referred to as a line segment. A line segment, in contrast to a line, has a known length. A line segment's length can be calculated using either metric measurements like millimeters or centimeters, or conventional measurements like feet or inches.

Given that FH is a line segment and FH = 18 units. G is a point on FH such that FG = 4x units and GH = 2x units.

So, we can write

4x + 2x = 18

i.e. 6x = 18

i.e. x = 18/6 = 3

Then, the value of x is 3 units. So, the first option is correct.
