The cost of an appliance whose purchase price is $600 and annual hydro cost is $115 is given by the function C(n) = (600 + 115n)/n where is the annual cost, in dollars, and n is the number of years. Show all your work. Clearly label all cases (a,b,c... ). a) Determine x-intercept(s) if it exists. b) Determine y-intercept(s) if it exists. c) Determine the equations of the horizontal asymptote if it exists.

Question

The cost of an appliance whose purchase price is $600 and annual hydro cost is $115 is given by the function C(n) = (600 + 115n)/n where is the annual cost, in dollars, and n is the number of years. Show all your work. Clearly label all cases (a,b,c... ). a) Determine x-intercept(s) if it exists. b) Determine y-intercept(s) if it exists. c) Determine the equations of the horizontal asymptote if it exists. d) Determine the equations of the vertical asymptote(s) if it exists. e) State the domain of the entire function n State the domain for the real-life situation. g) State the range of the entire function. h) State the range for the real-life situation. i) Determine the number of years needed to reduce the annual cost to below S180.
