Use a graphing utility to graph \(y=\frac{1}{x^{2}}, y=\frac{1}{x^{4}},\) and \(y=\frac{1}{x^{6}}\) in the same viewing rectangle. For even values of \(n,\) how does changing \(n\) affect the graph of \(y=\frac{1}{x^{n}} ?\)
Determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. I began the solution of the rational inequality \(\frac{x+1}{x+3} \geq 2\) by setting both \(x+1\) and \(x+3\) equal to zero.
Write the equation of a rational function \(f(x)=\frac{p(x)}{q(x)}\) having the indicated properties, in which the degrees of p and q are as small as possible. More than one correct function may be possible. Graph your function using a graphing utility to verify that it has the required properties. \(f\) has a vertical asymptote given by \(x=3,\) a horizontal asymptote \(y=0, y\) -intercept at \(-1,\) and no \(x\) -intercept.
Solve each inequality using a graphing utility. $$\frac{1}{x+1} \leq \frac{2}{x+4}$$
Determine whether each statement is true or false. If the statement is false, make the necessary change(s) to produce a true statement. The inequality \(\frac{x-2}{x+3}<2\) can be solved by multiplying both sides by \((x+3)^{2}, x \neq-3,\) resulting in the equivalent inequality \((x-2)(x+3)<2(x+3)^{2}\).
