problem_activity: Problem 1
Below is the graph and equation of the function
$$f$$
.
$$f(x)=(x-2)(x-5)\over(x-2)(x+1)$$
[IMG]
And below is the graph and equation of the function
$$g$$
.
$$g(x)={(x-5)\over(x+1)}$$
[IMG]
How are the functions
$$f$$
and
$$g$$
similar Different?
Problem 2
How are the functions
$${g(x)}$$
and
$${h(x)}$$
different? Similar?
$${g(x)}={x^2\over{x-2}}$$
$${h(x)}={x^2-4\over{(x-2)(x+3)}}$$
