[tex]\lim_{h \to \116} x-16/\sqrt{x} -4[/tex]
What is the limit?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex] \displaystyle 8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we would like to compute the following limit

[tex] \displaystyle \lim_{x \to 16} \left( \frac{x - 16}{ \sqrt{x} - 4} \right) [/tex]

if we substitute 16 directly we'd end up

[tex] \displaystyle = \frac{16 - 16}{ \sqrt{16} - 4} [/tex]

[tex] \displaystyle = \frac{0}{ 0} [/tex]

which isn't a good answer now notice that we have a square root on the denominator so we can rationalise the denominator to do so multiply the expression by √x+4/√x+4 which yields:

[tex] \displaystyle \lim_{x \to 16} \left( \frac{x - 16}{ \sqrt{x} - 4} \times \frac{ \sqrt{x} + 4 }{ \sqrt{x} + 4 } \right) [/tex]

simplify which yields:

[tex] \displaystyle \lim_{x \to 16} \left( \frac{(x - 16)( \sqrt{x} + 4)}{ x - 16} \right) [/tex]

we can reduce fraction so that yields:

[tex] \displaystyle \lim_{x \to 16} \left( \frac{ \cancel{(x - 16)}( \sqrt{x} + 4)}{ \cancel{x - 16} } \right) [/tex]

[tex] \displaystyle \lim _{x \to 16} \left( \sqrt{x } + 4\right) [/tex]

now it's safe enough to substitute 16 thus

substitute:

[tex] \displaystyle = \sqrt{16} + 4[/tex]

simplify square root:

[tex] \displaystyle = 4 + 4[/tex]

simplify addition:

[tex] \displaystyle = 8[/tex]

hence,

[tex] \displaystyle \lim_{x \to 16} \left( \frac{x - 16}{ \sqrt{x} - 4} \right) = 8[/tex]

Jacob wants to enlarge a 4 in. By 6 in. Photo so that the longer side will be 14 in. How long will the shorter side be? (MUST SHOW WORK) HINT: Refer to your notes on Scale Drawings.

Answers

Answer: 9.3 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jacob wants to enlarge the larger side of the photo which is the 6 in. part, to becomes 14 in.

This means that Jacob wants to increase the larger side by a scale factor of:

= Length of enlarged picture / Length of original

= 14 / 6

= 2.33

2.33 is therefore the scale factor.

The shorter side will also increase by this same scale factor:

= 4 * 2.33

= 9.3 in.

Out of 260 racers who started the marathon, 235 completed the race, 17 gave up, and 8 were disqualified. What percentage did not complete the marathon? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.

Answers

18/230 = (approximately) 0.07826.

Multiply by 100 to change the decimal to a percent.

Answer:

9.6% or 9.7% did not finish

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this 2 different ways:

First way: 17+8=25, so 25 out of 260 did not complete. 25/260=0.096, or 9.6% did not finish.

Second way: 235 out of 260 finished. 235/260=0.903, or 90.3% finished. 100-90.3= 9.7, which is almost exactly equal to our first answer.

They can't be the same because 25/260 and 235/260 are very random decimals, so the answer is 9.6% to 9.7% :)

Answer:

Amount of simple interest in three year = 750

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount invested = 5,000

Number of year = 3 year

Rate of interest = 5% Annually

Find:

Amount of simple interest in three year

Computation:

Simple interest = (P){R)(T)

Amount of simple interest in three year = (5,000)(3)(5%)

Amount of simple interest in three year = (5,000)(3)(0.05)

Amount of simple interest in three year = (5,000)(0.15)

Amount of simple interest in three year = 750

17371.8 ft^3 using the pi button

Step-by-step explanation:

V = pi r^2 h  where r is the radius and h is the height

V = pi (12)^2 ( 38.4)

V =pi ( 144) 38.4

5529.6pi

Letting  pi be 3.14

V = 5529.6 (3.14)

V =17362.944 ft^3

V = 17362.9 ft^3

Letting pi = pi button

V =17371.75074 or to the nearest tenth 17371.8 ft^3

convert the decimal number 356 to a Quinary number

Answers

Answer : Yes the answer to your question is 2411.

Explanation : how I got the answer

To convert decimal number 356.625, we convert its integer and fraction part individually and then add them to get the equivalent quinary number, as below:

To convert integer 356 to quinary, follow these steps:

Divide 356 by 5 keeping notice of the quotient and the remainder. Continue dividing the quotient by 2 until you get a quotient of zero.

Then just write out the remainders in the reverse order to get the equivalent quinary number.

356 / 5 = 71 with remainder 1

71 / 5 = 14 with remainder 1

14 / 5 = 2 with remainder 4

2 / 5 = 0 with remainder 2

Here is the answer to 356 decimal to quinary number:

Find the area of the shaded region

Answers

Answer:

Area of the shades region = 244.6 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the shaded region = Area of the rectangle ABCD- Area of the right angle triangle DEC

Area of the rectangle = Length × width

                                    = 29.8 × 13

                                    = 387.4 ft²

By applying Pythagoras theorem in the right triangle DEC,

(Hypotenuse)² = (leg 1)² + (leg 2)²

CD² = DE² + EC²

(29.8)² = DE² + (28)²

888.04 = DE² + 784

DE² = 888.04 - 784

DE = 10.2 ft

Area of ΔDEC = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(\text{Base})(\text{Height})[/tex]

                        = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(10.2)(28)[/tex]

                        = 142.8 ft²

Area of the shades region = 387.4 - 142.8

                                             = 244.6 ft²

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

Be very careful that you understand which arc you are asking for. Arc CB could be the arc made up of 53 + 79 + 68 = 200.

Somehow I get the idea that is not what you want. You want the arc that is not divided up so it is

Arc CB = 360 - Sum of the minor arcs

Arc CB = 360 --  200

Arc CB = 160
