In a mountain range of California, the percent of moisture that falls as snow rather than rain can be approximated by the function p(hi) \( =76 \ln (h)-597 \), where \( h \) is the altitude in feet and p(h) is the percent of an annual snow fall at the altitude \( h \). Use the function to approximate the amount of snow at the altitudes 5000 feet and 9000 feet. The percent of annual precipitation that falls as snow at 5000 feet is approximately \( \square \% \). (Round to the nearest integer.)

Given the function with the equation \( k(x)=\frac{-6}{x+2}-2 \) : \( 7.1 \quad \) Write the equations of the asymptotes of \( k \).

Find the function that is finally graphed after the following transformations are applied to the graph of \( y=\sqrt{x} \) in the order listed. (1) Shift up 7 units (2) Reflect about the \( x \)-axis (3) Reflect about the \( y \)-axis \( y= \)

Given \( f(x)=\frac{-2}{x}-2 \), Answer the following questions: .1 Write down the equations of the asymptotes of \( f(x) \). 2 Draw a neat sketch graph of \( f(x) \), clearly indicate the asymptotes and the intercepts with the axes. .3 Write down the domain and range of \( f(x) \).

Given: \( f(x)=2\left(x^{2}-1\right) \) Sketch function \( f \) on the diagram sheet. Clearly show all intercepts with the axes.

(a) Express the distance \( d \) from \( P \) to the origin as a function of \( x \). \( d(x)=\sqrt{\mathrm{x}^{4}-3 \mathrm{x}^{2}+4} \) (Simplify your answer. Type an exact answer, using radicals as needed.) (b) What is \( d \) if \( x=0 \) ? If \( x=0 \), the distance \( d \) is (Type an integer or decimal rounded to two decimal places as needed.)
