The increase in a person’s body temperature T(t), above 98.6ºF, can be modeled by the function , where t represents time elapsed. What is the meaning of the horizontal asymptote for this function?

Question illustration
A
The horizontal asymptote of y = 0 means that the person’s temperature will approach 98.6ºF as time elapses.
B
The horizontal asymptote of y = 0 means that the person’s temperature will approach 0ºF as time elapses.
C
The horizontal asymptote of y = 4 means that the person’s temperature will approach 102.6ºF as time elapses.
D
The horizontal asymptote of y = 4 means that the person’s temperature will approach 4ºF as time elapses.

Does the expression simplify to x?

Question illustration
A
No, because x3 – 1 can be factored as x(x2 – x + 1) and x2 – 1 can be factored as x(x – 1), so only x can be canceled.
B
Yes, because x3(x – 1) can be factored as x2(x – 1) and x2 – 1 can be factored as x(x – 1), so (x – 1) can be canceled.
C
No, because the –1 in the numerator and denominator is not a common factor and cannot be canceled.
D
Yes, because –1 in the numerator and denominator is a common factor and can be canceled.
