3/x-2, i'm confused as to what the horizontal asymptote is. The resources I found online conclude that it has a horizontal asymptote of y=0. I know that in order for a horizontal asymptote to be y=0, the denominator has to have a greater degree than the numerator. Im confused because doesn't the numerator have the same degree as the denominator (degree of 1)?

The Horizontal Asymptote is at x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is a way to remember this

One way to remember this is the following pnemonic device: BOBO BOTN EATS DC

EABOBO -Exponents are bigger on bottom, y=0

EABOTN -Exponents are bigger on top, none

EATS DC - Exponents are the same, divide coefficients

3/x-2 the exponents are the same, divide leading coefficients

3/1 = 3 the horizontal asymtote is at x=3

x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

last month maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. let x represent the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. if she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times maria hiked each trail? x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x
