Answer 4

what are your thoughts on this?

Answer 5

i have no idea :(

Answer 6

So, I'm not entirely sure what they mean by relative value--but I'm thinking it means this.

We know that at 2 and really close to 2 its going to be either really large negative or really large positive values.

However, as we are coming at the asymptote from either direction it is either a real small negative or real small positive.

So, its gonna be one or the other of those choices, but like I said I'm not really sure what they mean by relative, I think its the 2nd explanation here.

Answer 13

What are your thoughts?

Answer 14

i really don't have a thought because it is hard for me

Answer 15

Well let me ask you this, what happens when it reaches 2?

Answer 16

um i really don't know :(

Answer 17

What is the domain of x?

Answer 18

0

Answer 19

is it?

Answer 20

B?

Answer 21

Well it doesn't specify from the direction, so what else can it be?

Your domain is \[x \neq 2\]

Answer 22

actually i think D

Answer 23

-2?

Answer 24

@iambatman

Answer 25

i think there would be a negative number

Answer 26

are you there? @iambatman

Answer 27

Well I've never heard of a term "Relative value" dealing with such things, the wording here is is not in a right manner. Unless they are using it just as a comparison to the graph, but I think you may be right on D.

Answer 28

it was A

Answer 29

Mhm, I guess that does make sense now that I think about, the problem with this question is they don't define from where they are taking the limit from, if I use calculus and get the "relative maximum and minimum" if that's what they meant then I could've got the answer right away, but I didn't think of it at the time. But it does make sense, you can plug a very tiny number and divide, and you'll get a very large positive number, and do the same with negative bleh, what a mess.

Answer 30

yea thanks

Answer 31

Does it make sense now?

Answer 32

yea a little

Answer 33

It's just the way they worded it, like I said before I've never seen such a term as the represented, that's the problem with these online problems. Never specific. Sorry :\

Answer 34

its ok . iworked very hard on this question for an hour.

Answer 35

The trick to this was to know the domain and you can also check by plugging in the various numbers, should've done that right off the bat.

Answer 36

yea
