200

Name ALL possible roots for the following polynomial: f(x)=2x-10x2+14x-1

1, -1, 1/2, -1/2

200

300

Find logb16 if logb2 = 0.3562.

logb16 = logb2= 4logb2 = 4(0.3562) = 1.4248

300

What is the domain of f(x)= sqrt(x-6)?

All real numbers greater than or equal to 6 OR [6, inf.)

300

Write the system as a single augmented matrix:

x+ y- z = 10

2x- 3y = -1

-x+ 6y- 2z = 3

1 1 -1 | 10

2 -3 0 | -1

-1 6 -2 | 3

300

How do we find if a function has a horizontal asymptote?

The horizontal asymptote is determined by looking at the degrees of the numerator (n) and denominator (m). If n<m, the x-axis, y=0 is the horizontal asymptote. If n=m, then y=an / bm is the horizontal asymptote.
