Question

Which graph represents the function of f(x) = the quantity of 9 x squared minus 36, all over 3 x plus 6?

Answer 1

please show the graphs that go with this question

Answer 2

ok

Answer 3

ok and the function is \[\frac{ 9x^{2}-36 }{ 3x+6 }\] ?

Answer 4

yes

Answer 5

alright, can you simplify this formula?

Answer 6

yes it would be \[\frac{ 9(x+2)(x-2) }{ 3(x+2) }\]

Answer 7

that's correct.

Answer 8

now, if we just ignore the value x=-2 we can just write it as \(3(x-2)\) right?

Answer 9

are you still there

Answer 10

yes

Answer 11

do you see how i arrived at that last answer?

Answer 12

yes i do
