Answer to Question #57115 in Algebra for Bobby Bass

Question

8: Which function has a removable discontinuity?
A: f(x) = 5x/1 – x^2
B: g(x) = 2x – 1/x
C: h(x) = x^2 – x – 2/x + 1
D: p(x) = x/x^2 – x – 2


9: What is the equation of the oblique asymptote?

h(x) = x^2 – 3x – 4/x + 2

A: y = x + 4
B: y = x – 5
C: y = x
D: y = x – 4


10: Which function has the following characteristics?

A: y = -x/ 2x^2 – x – 12
B: y = -x^2/ 2x^2 – 2x – 12
C: y = x/ 2x^2 – x – 3
D: y = -1/ 2x^2 – 2x – 6
