Answer:
Limit [tex]$\lim_{x \to 0} f(x)$[/tex] does not exist.
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate left hand limit, we use a value slightly lesser than that of 0.
To calculate right hand limit, we use a value slightly greater than that of 0.
Let h be a very small value.
Left hand limit will be calculate at 0-h
Right hand limit will be calculate at 0+h
First of all, let us have a look at the value of f(0-h) and f(0+h)
[tex]f(0-h)=f(-h) = \dfrac{-h}{|-h|}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{-h}{h} = -1[/tex]
[tex]f(0-h)=-1 ....... (1)[/tex]
[tex]f(0+h)=f(h) = \dfrac{h}{|h|}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{h}{h} = 1[/tex]
[tex]f(0+h)=1 ....... (2)[/tex]
Now, left hand limit:
[tex]$\lim_{x \to 0^{-} } f(x)$\\[/tex] = [tex]$\lim_{h \to 0} f(0-h)$[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow[/tex] [tex]$\lim_{h \to 0} f(-h)$[/tex]
Using equation (1):
[tex]$\lim_{x \to 0^{-} } f(x)$\\[/tex] = -1
Now, Right hand limit:
[tex]$\lim_{x \to 0^{+} } f(x)$\\[/tex] = [tex]$\lim_{h \to 0} f(0+h)$[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow[/tex] [tex]$\lim_{h \to 0} f(h)$[/tex]
Using equation (2):
[tex]$\lim_{x \to 0^{-} } f(x)$\\[/tex] = 1
Since Left Hand Limit [tex]\neq[/tex] Right Hand Limit
So, the answer is:
Limit [tex]$\lim_{x \to 0} f(x)$[/tex] does not exist.

.
Find the total number present after
1
,
2
, and
3
days.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula is
[tex]y=45(4)^x[/tex]
which models the exponential function
[tex]y=a(b)^x[/tex] where a is the initial amount of whatever it is you have (in our case it's bacteria), b is the growth rate (ours is 4 which means that every day the number from the day before increases by a factor of 4), and x is the number of days. We plug into the formula the values we have, starting with x = 1:
[tex]y=45(4)^1[/tex]
Always raise what's inside the parenthesis first, then multiply in the 45. 4 to the first is 4, and 4 multiplied by 45 is 180. After the first day, there are 180 bacteria present in the culture.
Next, x = 2:
[tex]y=45(4)^2[/tex] which simplifies to
y = 45(16) so
y = 720.
Next, x = 3:
[tex]y=45(4)^3[/tex] which simplifies to
y = 45(64) so
y = 2880

a right square pyramid has a slant height of 20 feet, and the length of a side of the base is 32 feet. what is the height, h, of the pyramid?
Answer:
The pyramid's height h = 12 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that the slant height of the pyramid forms a right angle triangle with the segment that joins the bottom end of the slant height with the center of the pyramid's base, and with the pyramid height (h).
The segment joining the slant height with the center of the pyramid's base is one half of the side of the base in length, so that it; 16 feet.
then we have a right angle triangle with hypotenuse given by the pyramid's slant height (20 ft), a leg given by 16 ft, and we need to find the length of the second leg (pyramid's height (h).so we use the Pythagorean theorem:
[tex]hyp^2=leg_1^2+leg_2^2\\(20\,ft)^2= (16\,ft)^2+h^2\\h^2=400\,ft^2-256\,ft^2\\h^2=144\,ft^2\\h=12 \,ft[/tex]

Evelyn believes that if she flips a coin 480 times, it will land tails up exactly 240 times. What would you tell Evelyn about her prediction?
Based on Evelyn's response, it can be said that she predicts that there is a 50% chance of the coin landing on tails and a 50% chance of the coin landing on heads.
What is the probability?Probability determines the chances that an event would happen. The probability the event occurs is 1 and the probability that the event does not occur is 0.
The probability that the coin lands on tails is half of the number of times the coin is tossed. This means she belives that there is an equal chance that the coin would land on either heads or tails.

n is an interger -15<3n《6
write the values of n
Answer:
So for the first few small values of n, we have proven by demonstration that f(n) = n / (n+1).
Our task is to prove that if it works for any positive integer value of n, then it works for n + 1. This way, it must by induction work for all subsequent values of n.
Formally said, we need to prove that if for some positive integer n we can show that f(n) = n / (n+1), then we can conclude that f(n+1) = (n + 1) / (n + 2).
We begin the real "proof" by expanding f(n + 1):
f(n + 1) = f(n) + 1 / ((n+1)((n+1)+1)) because that's based on the construction.
= n / (n+1) + 1 / ((n+1)(n+2)) because f(n) = n / (n+1); this is called "using what you know from earlier".
= n(n+2) / ((n+1)(n+2)) + 1 / ((n+1)(n+2)) because we can multiply the left fraction by (n+2)/(n+2).
= (n2 + 2n + 1) / ((n+1)(n+2)) because we have a common denominator and can combine the numerators.
= (n+1)2 / ( (n+1)(n+2)) because we can factor the numerator now; it is a perfect square.
= (n+1) / (n+2) because we can cancel the common (n+1) factor from the numerator and denominator.

Step-by-step explanation:
(42) A school only provides bus service
to students who live a distance greater
than 2 miles away from the school. On a
coordinate plane, the school is located at
the origin, and Michael lives at the closest
point to the school on Maple Street,
which can be represented by the line
y = 2x – 4. If each unit on the coordinate
plane represents 1 mile, does Michael
live far enough from the school for bus
service?
Answer:
~1.8 mile
Step-by-step explanation:
Michael lives at the closest point to the school (the origin) on Maple Street, which can be represented by the line y = 2x – 4.
This means Michael's house will be the intersection point of line y1 (y = 2x - 4) and line y2 that is perpendicular to y1 and passes the origin.
Denote equation of y2 is y = ax + b,
with a is equal to negative reciprocal of 2 => a = -1/2
y2 pass the origin (0, 0) => b = 0
=> Equation of y2:
y = (-1/2)x
To find location of Michael's house, we get y1 = y2 or:
2x - 4 = (-1/2)x
<=> 4x - 8 = -x
<=> 5x = 8
<=> x = 8/5
=> y = (-1/2)x = (-1/2)(8/5) = -4/5
=> Location of Michael' house: (x, y) = (8/5, -4/5)
Distance from Michael's house to school is:
D = sqrt(x^2 + y^2) = sqrt[(8/5)^2 + (-4/5)^2) = ~1.8 (mile)
What single transformation maps ∆ABC onto ∆A'B'C'? A. rotation 90° clockwise about the origin B. rotation 90° counterclockwise about the origin C. reflection across the x-axis D. reflection across the line y = x
Answer:
B. rotation 90° counterclockwise about the origin.
Step-by-step explanation:
Transformation is the process by which the size or orientation of a given figure is altered without any effect on its shape. Examples are; rotation, reflection, translation and dilation.
Rotation is the process of turning a figure about a reference point called the origin. While reflection is turning a figure about a line to produce its image.
In the given question, ∆ABC is mapped onto ∆A'B'C' by rotating it at 90° counterclockwise about the origin.
The correct option is (B). rotation 90°counterclockwise about the origin.
Given, ∆ABC and ∆A'B'C' are shown in attached figure.
We have to map ∆ABC onto ∆A'B'C',.
A transformation is a general term for four specific ways to manipulate the shape and or position of a point, a line, or geometric figure.
Transformation is also the process by which the size or orientation of a given figure is altered without any effect on its shape.
A rotation is a transformation in which the object is rotated about a fixed point.The direction of rotation can be clockwise or anticlockwise.
It is clear from the fig that the ∆ABC can be mapped over ∆A'B'C' by the rotation of 90°counterclockwise about the origin.
Hence the correct option is (B). rotation 90°counterclockwise about the origin.

Un comerciante de algodón de azúcar gana 40 cm por cada algodón vendido pero si no lo logra venderlo pierde 50 céntimos. un día en que fabricó 120 algodones obtuvo una ganancia de 39 soles ¿Cuántos algodones no logró vender ese día?
Answer:
He fails to sell that day 10 cottons.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a cotton candy merchant earns 40 cents for each cotton sold, but if he cannot sell it he loses 50 cents.
One day when he made 120 cottons, he made a profit of 39 soles.
Let the number of cottons merchant is able to sold be 'x' and the number of cottons merchant is not able to sold be 'y'.
So, according to the question;
The first condition states that he made 120 cottons on one day, that is;x + y = 120
x = 120 - y ---------------------- [Equation 1]
The second condition states that merchant earns 40 cents for each cotton sold, but if he cannot sell it he loses 50 cents and due to which he made a profit of 30 soles, that is;[tex]0.40x - 0.50y=39[/tex]
[tex]40x - 50y=3900[/tex]
[tex]40(120-y) - 50y=3900[/tex]
[tex]4800-40y - 50y=3900[/tex]
[tex]90y=4800-3900[/tex]
[tex]90 y = 900[/tex]
[tex]y=\frac{900}{90}=10[/tex]
This means that the merchant is not able to sell 10 cottons.

Answer:
y= -3x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have the same slope. We can form an incomplete equation:
y= -3x+b
(make sure to see why the slope is -3)
We can plug in the coordinates of (2, -4):
-4= -3(2)+b
-4= -6+b
2=b
b is 2! We can form an equation: y= -3x+2

Step-by-step explanation:
Simply remove the +2
Answer:
y = - 3x + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Given
3x + y + 2 = 0 ( subtract 3x + 2 from both sides )
y = - 3x - 2 ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - 3
Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus
y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (3, - 4) into the partial equation
- 4 = - 9 + c ⇒ c = - 4 + 9 = 5
y = - 3x + 5 ← equation of line in form y = mx + c

The power in watts,P, that is generated by a certain electric circuit depends on the current in amperes ,i, and can be modeled by the equation P=20(i-3)^2+180, Where i>3. Which of the following gives the value of i in terms of P?
i=3+2squareroot5(P-180)
i=3+1/2sq p-180/5
Answer:
i = {√(P-180)/20}+ 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we simply need to make i the subject of the formula
that would be;
P -180 = 20(i-3)^2
Divide through by 20
(P-180)/20 = (i-3)^2
Find the square root of both sides
sqr (P-180)/20 = i-3
i = {√(P-180)/20}+ 3
Jim & Gavin share a lottery win of £4750 in the ratio 1 : 4. Jim then shares his part between himself, his wife & their son in the ratio 2 : 6 : 2. How much more does his wife get over their son?
Answer:
£380
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the initial win of £4750
Sum the parts of the ratio, 1 + 4 = 5 parts
Divide the win by 5 to find the value of one part of the ratio.
£4750 ÷ 5 = £950 ← value of 1 part of the ratio
Thus Jim's share is £950
Sum the parts of the ratio shared in his family, 2 + 6 + 2 = 10 parts
Divide his share by 10 to find the value of one part
£950 ÷ 10 = £95 , thus
2 parts = 2 × £95 = £190 ← sons share
6 parts = 6 × £95 = £570 ← wife's share
£570 - £190 = £380
Wife gets £380 more than the son
A package of 8-count AA batteries cost $6.16. A package of 20-count AA batteries cost $15.60. Which statement about the unit prices is true?
Answer:
The unit prices will be within the range of $0.77 ≤x≤$0.78
Step-by-step explanation:
If a package 8-count AA batteries cost $6.16 and a package of same 20-count AA batteries cost $15.60, to calculate the unit price, the following steps must be carried out:
8 counts AA batteries = $6.16
A unit price (i.e 1 count) = x
Cross multiplying
8 × x = 6.16 × 1
x = 6.16/8
x = $0.77 for a unit price
Similarly, if 20-count AA batteries cost $15.60, then:
20 counta = $15.60
1 count = x
Cross multiplying
20 × x = $15.60 × 1
x = $15.60/20
x = $0.78 for a unit price
From above calculation, of can be seen that the unit price is almost similar but with a difference of $0.01 ($0.78-$0.77) which is insignificant. Based on this, we can conclude that a unit price of the battery is between the range
$0.77 ≤x≤$0.78
Answer:
The 8-count pack of AA batteries has a lower unit price of 0.77
per battery.

A same side interior angle of two parallel lines is 20° less than the other same side interior angle. Find the measures of these two angles.
Answer:
The measures of the two angles are 80 and 100
Step-by-step explanation:
Let [tex]m_1[/tex] and [tex]m_2[/tex] represent the two angles such that
[tex]m_1 = m_2 - 20[/tex]
Required
Find [tex]m_1[/tex] and [tex]m_2[/tex]
The two angles of a same-side interior angle of parallel lines add up to 180;
This implies that
[tex]m_1 + m_2 = 180[/tex]
Substitute [tex]m_2 - 20[/tex] for [tex]m_1[/tex]
[tex]m_1 + m_2 = 180[/tex] becomes
[tex]m_2 - 20 + m_2 = 180[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]m_2 + m_2 = 180 + 20[/tex]
[tex]2m_2 = 180 + 20[/tex]
[tex]2m_2 = 200[/tex]
Divide both sides by 2
[tex]\frac{2m_2}{2} = \frac{200}{2}[/tex]
[tex]m_2 = \frac{200}{2}[/tex]
[tex]m_2 = 100[/tex]
Recall that [tex]m_1 = m_2 - 20[/tex]
[tex]m_1 = 100 - 20[/tex]
[tex]m_1 = 80[/tex]
Hence, the measures of the two angles are 80 and 100

Using distributive property, we get
[tex]4x+\dfrac{1}{2}(10x)+\dfrac{1}{2}(-4)=6[/tex]
[tex]4x+5x-2=6[/tex]
[tex]9x-2=6[/tex] (Combine like terms)

What is the equation for a straight line that would allow you to predict the value of Y from a given value of X. That is, calculate the value of "a" and the value of "b" and then substitute the 2 values into the generic equation (Y = a + bX) for a straight line. (Hint: calculate "b" first)
Answer:
[tex]m=-\frac{13}{20.8}=-0.625[/tex]
Nowe we can find the means for x and y like this:
[tex]\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}=\frac{16}{5}=3.2[/tex]
[tex]\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}=\frac{35}{5}=7[/tex]
And we can find the intercept using this:
[tex]b=\bar y -m \bar x=7-(-0.625*3.2)=9[/tex]
So the line would be given by:
[tex]y=-0.625 x +9[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the following data:
X: 3,3,2,1,7
Y:6,7,8,9,5
We want to find an equationinf the following form:
[tex] y= bX +a[/tex]
[tex]a=m=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}}[/tex]
Where:
[tex]S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}{n}[/tex]
[tex]S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}[/tex]
So we can find the sums like this:
[tex]\sum_{i=1}^n x_i = 3+3+2+1+7=16[/tex]
[tex]\sum_{i=1}^n y_i =6+7+8+9+5=35[/tex]
[tex]\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i =72[/tex]
[tex]\sum_{i=1}^n y^2_i =255[/tex]
[tex]\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i =99[/tex]
With these we can find the sums:
[tex]S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}=72-\frac{16^2}{5}=20.8[/tex]
[tex]S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}=99-\frac{16*35}{5}=-13[/tex]
And the slope would be:
[tex]m=-\frac{13}{20.8}=-0.625[/tex]
Nowe we can find the means for x and y like this:
[tex]\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}=\frac{16}{5}=3.2[/tex]
[tex]\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}=\frac{35}{5}=7[/tex]
And we can find the intercept using this:
[tex]b=\bar y -m \bar x=7-(-0.625*3.2)=9[/tex]
So the line would be given by:
[tex]y=-0.625 x +9[/tex]
Find the distance between a point (–7, –19) and a horizontal line at y = 3. Choices are in the attachment...
Explanation:
The distance we're after is the vertical distance from the point to the line. So we only care about the difference in y values from y = -19 to y = 3
You can count out the spaces or use subtraction along with absolute value
distance from P to Q = |P-Q|
distance from -19 to 3 = |-19-3|
distance from -19 to 3 = |-22|
distance from -19 to 3 = 22
The absolute value is to ensure the result is never negative.
