Question 622828: 1)Identify the vertical asymptotes for the function.
f(x)= x-1/x-4
2)Identify the horizontal asymptotes for the function.
f(x)= x-5/x+1
3)Which type of variation is represented by the following equation?
a1/b1= a2/b2
4)Which type of variation is represented by a1b1 = b2a2?
5)Simplify.
x+2/x+3 divided by x^2+x-12/x^2-9
6)solve
x-4/x-2= x-2/x+2 plus 1/x-2
Thank you so much!

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
  • First, don't post so many problems in a single post. You are unlikely to get help when you do.
  • Tutors are more likely to help with clearly posted problems. For example, put parentheses around numerators and denominators. Your problem #1, as posted, means:
    f%28x%29=+x-1%2Fx-4
    But I suspect that it is rather
    f%28x%29=+x-1%2F%28x-4%29
    or
    f%28x%29=+%28x-1%29%2Fx-4
    or
    f%28x%29=+%28x-1%29%2F%28x-4%29
    Most of the problems you posted suffer from this ambiguity. Tutors are unlikely to respond when they are not sure what the problem actually is. (Note: Click on the "Show Source" link above to see what I typed for each of the expressions above.)
