Identify the equation of the horizontal asymptote:

Group of answer choices

y = 1

x = 1

y = 3

x = 3

Answer

See explanation

Explanation.

A horizontal asymptote is a horizontal straight line that the graph of a function approaches when the domain approaches infinity.

We cannot see the graph.

However I provided a graph in the attachment.

Using this graph the horizontal asymptote is y=3.

Note that x=1 and x=3 are vertical lines so they cannot be a horizontal asymptote.

answer: the price of one pound cabbage = $ 0.8

the point (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds cabbage is $ 8

step-by-step explanation:

since, here is a proportional relation between the number of pounds of cabbage (x) and the price in dollars (y).

therefore, we can write,

⇒ y = k x

where k is the constant of proportionality.

now, point (5,4) is in the line.

thus, it will satisfies the above equation of line.

⇒ 4 = 5 k

⇒ k = 0.8

thus, the equation of the line is,

y = 0.8 x

a) for x = 1,

y = 0.8

therefore, the cost of one pound of cabbage is 0.8 dollars.

b) in the below graph (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds of cabbage is 8 dollars.
