Chapter 2: Problem 91
Determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. I like to think of a parabola's vertex as the point where it intersects its axis of symmetry.

What is a rational function?
Use transformations of \(f(x)=\frac{1}{x}\) or \(f(x)=\frac{1}{x^{2}}\) to graph each rational function. $$g(x)=\frac{1}{x+2}-2$$
My graph of \(y=\frac{x-1}{(x-1)(x-2)}\) has vertical asymptotes at \(x=1\) and \(x=2\).
A company is planning to manufacture mountain bikes. The fixed monthly cost will be \(\$ 100,000\) and it will cost \(\$ 100\) to produce each bicycle. a. Write the cost function, \(C,\) of producing \(x\) mountain bikes. b. Write the average cost function, \(\bar{C},\) of producing \(x\) mountain bikes. c. Find and interpret \(\bar{C}(500), \bar{C}(1000), \bar{C}(2000),\) and \(\bar{C}(4000)\) d. What is the horizontal asymptote for the graph of the average cost function, \(\bar{C} ?\) Describe what this means in practical terms.
Will help you prepare for the material covered in the next section. Simplify: \(\frac{x+1}{x+3}-2\)
