Two fewer than a number doubled is the same as the number decreased by 38. Find the number. If n is "the number," which equation could be used to solve for the number? 2 n - 2 = n - 38 2( n - 2) = n + 38 2( n - 2) = n - 38

answer:   b

step-by-step explanation:

x2 = 16

x can not be a negative number because 16 is positive

the only answer would be positive 8  

c

step-by-step explanation:

there is vertical asymptote at x = 2 and x = 0

vertical asymptote occurs at the points where the denominator is 0. so we can say that

x = 2 occurs when there is a factor (x-2) in the denominator, and

x = 0 occurs when there is a factor "x" in the denominator

thus, the denominator of the equation would have "x * (x-2)", this is option c only. that's the correct answer.

yes

yes

the correct option is b
