Write a word problem to match the expression step by step

x/3 = x/4 + 18

-x/4     -x/4

(x/3 - x/4) = 18

*multiply to change the denominators*

(4x/6 - 3x/6) = 18

x/6 = 18

6(x/6) = 6(18)

x = 108

Now we just halve that to get the number

108 ÷ 1/2 = 54

54 is the answer

4. (21 pts) (I) (6 pts) Determine the value of a constant b for which the function g is continuous at 0. Show your work. Justify your answer! 2 x +b if x<0, X-5 g(x) = if x 20, x#4. We have to show that lim g (x) = g (0). g(0) = 0 +18 = -1; lim X0* 0 + 16 ) = lim x + 16 **0* x2 - 160 - 16- Since lim g (x) has to exist (in order for g to be continuous at x = 0), it has to be true that x-0- x0+ X- 0 lim g(x) - lim g(x) = lim g(x). Therefore, -1, and , so b = 5. so, if b = 5, lim g (x) = g(0), and therefore, g is continuous at x = 0. (II) (4 pts) Evaluate the limit.

If so, write the equation (or equations) of all horizontal asymptotes. y = 2, by part (II) (a) y = 0, by part (II) (b) (IV) (7 pts) Determine whether g has any vertical asymptotes. If so, write the equation (or equations) of all vertical asymptotes. Show your work. Justify your answer! 5 + 16 There is no vertical asymptote at x = 5, because lim g(x) = x+5 52-16' -8 + b (x) = there is no vertical asymptote at x = -4, because lim X -4 - 4 - 5 But, lim g(x) = lim + 16 x+4+ x2 - 16 lim_ (x + 16) -20 x+4+ (x - 4) 60 (x + 4) +8 (or the numerator goes to 20, and the denominator is positive and goes to o, as x + 4*) = +00 So, the function g has only one vertical asymptote, x = 4.
