D. F(x) =
(x + 5)(x - 2)
The rational function is:
f(x) = x/ (x - 2)(x + 5).
The correct option is D.
What are the asymptotes?As the function approaches a certain value—typically infinity or negative infinity—as the input approaches positive or negative infinity, this is known as a horizontal asymptote.
When the vertical asymptotes are x = 2 and x = -5, this means that the denominator of the rational expression must contain the factors (x - 2) and (x + 5), but not (x - a) or (x + b) for any other values of a and b.
When the horizontal asymptote is x = 0, this means that the degree of the numerator and denominator must be the same, and the leading coefficients must be equal.
Let's start by setting up the denominator:
denominator = (x - 2)(x + 5)
To satisfy the horizontal asymptote at x = 0, the numerator must also have a factor of x, so we can write:
numerator = kx
where k is a constant to be determined.
To ensure that the rational expression has the desired vertical asymptotes, we need to add any necessary linear or quadratic factors to the numerator.
Since the denominator already has linear factors, we only need to add a quadratic factor.
We can choose any quadratic factor that doesn't affect the horizontal asymptote or the other vertical asymptote.
For example, we can choose:
numerator = kx(x + 7)
Putting it all together, the rational expression is:
f(x) = kx / (x - 2)(x + 5)
To determine the value of k, we can use the fact that the leading coefficients of the numerator and denominator must be equal. The leading term of the numerator is kx², and the leading term of the denominator is x².
Therefore:
k = 1
So the final rational expression is:
f(x) = x / (x - 2)(x + 5)

Which of the following would best be solved using factoring by grouping?
3x^2 + 12x = 8 or x^2 + 3x - 10 = 0 or x^2 = 25 or x^3 + 5x^2 - 9x - 45 = 0
Answer:
the last one: x^3 + 5x^2 - 9x - 45 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve all the other ones by simple factoring and/or calculator.
Since the last one has more than 3 terms, it's likely that you'll have to use group factoring to solve it.
Which of the following are important properties of the arithmetic mean? Check all that apply. Multiple select question. The mean is always less than the median. All of the values in the data are used in calculating the mean. Σ(X-X)=0 i.e. the sum of the deviations is zero. There is only one mean for a set of data. The mean can be calculated for nominal data.
Answer:
All of the values in the data are used in calculating the mean.
The sum of the deviations is zero.
There is only one mean for a set of data.
Step-by-step explanation:
Required
True statement about arithmetic mean
(a) False
The mean can be equal to, greater than or less than the median
(b) True
The arithmetic mean is the summation of all data divided by the number of data; hence, all values are included.
(c) True
All mean literally represent the distance of each value from the average; so, when each value used in calculating the mean is subtracted from the calculated mean, then the end result is 0. i.e.[tex]\sum(x - \bar x) = 0[/tex]
(d) True
The mean value of a distribution is always 1 value. When more values are added to the existing values or some values are removed from the existing values, the mean value will change.
(e) False
Nominal data are not numerical or quantitative data; hence, the mean cannot be calculated.
If you take half my age and add 7, you get my age 13 years ago. How old am I?
Answer:
You are currently 40 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say the current age is represented by the variable x.
x = current age
The question says that "if you take half my age and add 7, you get my age 13 years ago"
This can be represented like this:
1/2(x) + 7 = x - 13
Now we solve for x using basic algebra:
1/2(x) = x - 20
-1/2(x) = -20
x = 40
To check if this is correct, plug it back into the equation and see if both sides equal each other:
1/2(40) + 7 = (40) - 13
20 + 7 = 27
27 = 27

A ball is thrown into the air. The path it takes is modeled by the equation: -3t+24t = h, where t is the time in seconds and h is the height of the ball above the ground, measured in feet. Write an inequality to model when the height of the ball is at least 36 feet above the ground. For how long is the ball at or above 36 feet?
Given:
The given equation is:
[tex]-3t^2+24t=h[/tex]
Where, t is the time in seconds and h is the height of the ball above the ground, measured in feet.
To find:
The inequality to model when the height of the ball is at least 36 feet above the ground. Then find time taken by ball to reach at or above 36 feet.
Solution:
We have,
[tex]-3t^2+24t=h[/tex]
The height of the ball is at least 36 feet above the ground. It means [tex]h\geq 36[/tex].
[tex]-3t^2+24t\geq 36[/tex]
[tex]-3t^2+24t-36\geq 0[/tex]
[tex]-3(t^2-8t+12)\geq 0[/tex]
Splitting the middle term, we get
[tex]-3(t^2-6t-2t+12)\geq 0[/tex]
[tex]-3(t(t-6)-2(t-6))\geq 0[/tex]
[tex]-3(t-2)(t-6)\geq 0[/tex]
The critical points are:
[tex]-3(t-2)(t-6)=0[/tex]
[tex]t=2,6[/tex]
These two points divide the number line in 3 intervals [tex](-\infty,2),(2,6),(6,\infty)[/tex].
Intervals Check point [tex]-3(t-2)(t-6)\geq 0[/tex] Result
[tex](-\infty,2)[/tex] 0 [tex](-)(-)(-)=(-)<0[/tex] False
[tex](2,6)[/tex] 4 [tex](-)(+)(-)=+>0[/tex] True
[tex](6,\infty)[/tex] 8 [tex](-)(+)(+)=(-)<0[/tex] False
The inequality is true for (2,6) and the sign of inequality is [tex]\geq[/tex]. So, the ball is above 36 feet between 2 to 6 seconds.
[tex]6-2=4[/tex]
Therefore, the required inequality is [tex]-3t^2+24t\geq 36[/tex] and the ball is 36 feet above for 4 seconds.

Answer:
The probability that Aaron goes to the gym on exactly one of the two days is 0.74
Step-by-step explanation:
Let P(Aaron goes to the gym on exactly one of the two days) be the probability that Aaron goes to the gym on exactly one of the two days.
Then
P(Aaron goes to the gym on exactly one of the two days) =
P(Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday and doesn't go on Sunday) +
P(Aaron doesn't go to the gym on Saturday and goes on Sunday)
If Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday the probability that he goes on Sunday is 0.3. Then If Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday the probability that he does not go on Sunday is 1-0.3 =0.7 Since the probability that Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday is 0.8,
P(Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday and doesn't go on Sunday) =
P(the probability that Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday)×P(If Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday the probability that he does not go on Sunday)=
0.8×0.7=0.56
The probability that Aaron doesn't go to the gym on Saturday is 1-0.8=0.2 And if Aaron does not go to the gym on Saturday the probability he goes on Sunday is 0.9.
Thus, P(Aaron doesn't go to the gym on Saturday and goes on Sunday) = P(The probability that Aaron doesn't go to the gym on Saturday)×P(if Aaron does not go to the gym on Saturday the probability he goes on Sunday)
=0.2×0.9=0.18
Then
P(Aaron goes to the gym on exactly one of the two days) =0.56 + 0.18 =0.74

The value of x for the given equation [tex]log_{8}[/tex](16) + 2[tex]log_{8}[/tex](x) = 2 will be 2 so option (B) must be correct.
What is a logarithm?The exponent indicates the power to which a base number is raised to produce a given number called a logarithm.
In another word, a logarithm is a different way to denote any number.
Given the equation
[tex]log_{8}[/tex](16) + 2[tex]log_{8}[/tex](x) = 2
We know that,
xlogb = log[tex]b^{x}[/tex]
So,
2[tex]log_{8}[/tex](x) = logx²
For the same base
logA + logB = log(AB)
So,
[tex]log_{8}[/tex](16) + [tex]log_{8}[/tex](x)² = 2
[tex]log_{8}[/tex](16x²) = 2
We know that
[tex]log_{a}[/tex](b) = c ⇒ b = [tex]a^{c}[/tex]
so,
[tex]log_{8}[/tex](16x²) = 2 ⇒ 8² = 16x²
x = 2 hence x = 2 will be correct answer.

A) 4.9 * 10 ^ 3
B) 1.6 * 10 ^ 4
C) 2.0 * 10 ^ 4
D) 1.6 * 10 ^ 12
Answer:
C: 2 × 10⁴
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that the average net primary production in tropical rain forests each year is 8,900 kilocalories per square meter.
Thus;
P_net,average = 8900 Kcal/m²
We are also told that net primary production of a selected portion of a tropical rain forest in a given year is 1.8 × 10^(8) kilocalories.
Thus;
P_net = 1.8 × 10^(8) Kcal
To get the average, the formula is;
P_net,average = P_net/Area
Thus;
Area = P_net/P_net,average
Plugging in the relevant values;
Area = (1.8 × 10^(8))/8900
Area ≈ 2 × 10⁴ m²
