Question

what happens to the value of the expression $\frac{5}{x} +5$ as $x$ decreases from a large positive number to a small positive number?

A. it increases :T
B. it decreases :T
C. it stays the same :T

Answer 1

Answer:

A) increases

Step-by-step explanation:

5/x + 5

suppose x = 5; then 5/5 + 5 = 1 + 5 = 6

            x = 2; then    5/2 + 5 = 2.5 + 5 = 7.5

            x = 1 ;then 5/1 + 5 = 5 + 5 = 10

So when x value decreases from a large positive number to a small positive number, 5/x + 5 increases
