Does anyone understand this? show work please. thank you.

You need to satisfy the equation.

I will solve one.

Step-by-step explanation:

x -2 < -5

now add + 2 to both sides to keep its value.

now we end up with x <-3, which means that the value of x should be less than -3 in order to satisfy the equation.

So -5 is an answer, -4 is an answer, but not -3 because it should be less than -3 not equal.

As for number 9 the dash underneath the less than symbol means that it can equal to.

Hope this helps.

b

step-by-step explanation:

the word superfluous means unnecessary

answer: b. f(x) = (x + 2)^3 (x^2 - 7x + 3)^4

step-by-step explanation:

polynomials always have as many roots as their order. this is a 4th order polynomial- hence 4 roots!

complex roots of polynomials always come in pairs. the quadratic equation has the "+/-" in that will alwaysgenerate m+ni amd m-ni, so 7-2i must be a root of this polynomial equation.

the order of the numerator and denominator are both 2. so the horizontal asymptote is y=a2/b2 =7

verticle asymptotes are the forbidden x-values. f(x) becomes undefined at x=-3 because this value will cause a zero denominator.

a graph of r(x) will have vertical asymptotes at ±1 because these values will make the denominator zero. so the domain of the function cannot include ±1.

you 're wlecome! : )
