Question 197622: Okay, here it is.
Sketch the graph of the rational function.
y=(x-2)/(x-3)
I don't remember seeing problems like this, but I'm thinking that if this follows suite with some of the other problems I've done in this review packet, the x-3 on the bottom means the graph is shifted right 3 spaces, making the vertical asymptote x=3. I think the x-2 on the top tells us how close the two segments of the graph are to 0,0 (relative to where the asymptotes have moved the graph, that is).
Am I on the right track? any explanation would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Question 197828: A six passenger plan cruises at 180 mph in calm air. If the plane flies 7 miles with the wind in the same amout of times as it flies 5 miles against the wind, then what is the wind speed?
I am looking for the formula or the way to arrange the equation. I think it might be D=r/t but I'm not sure. I'll solve once I know the formula or how to arrange the equation.
Thanks so much!!

4) The formula for calculating the amount of money returned for an initial deposit into a bank account or CD (certificate of deposit) is given by
A is the amount of the return.
P is the principal amount initially deposited.
r is the annual interest rate (expressed as a decimal).
n is the number of compound periods in one year.
t is the number of years.
Carry all calculations to six decimals on each intermediate step, then round the final answer to the nearest cent.
Suppose you deposit $2,000 for 5 years at a rate of 8%.
a) Calculate the return (A) if the bank compounds annually (n = 1). Round your answer to the nearest cent.
Answer:
Show work in this space. Use ^ to indicate the power or use the Equation Editor in MS Word.
b) Calculate the return (A) if the bank compounds quarterly (n = 4). Round your answer to the nearest cent.
Answer:
