What is lim x→-3 sqrt x^2-8

Mathematics

If the  -8 is under the square root, then...

\displaystyle L = \lim_{x\to -3} \sqrt{x^2-8}\\\\L = \sqrt{(-3)^2-8}\\\\L = \sqrt{9-8}\\\\L = \sqrt{1}\\\\L = 1\\\\

OR

If the -8 is not under the square root, then...

\displaystyle L = \lim_{x\to -3} \sqrt{x^2}-8\\\\L = \sqrt{(-3)^2}-8\\\\L = \sqrt{9}-8\\\\L = 3-8\\\\L = -5

Either way, we replace x with -3 and simplify.

For more information, refer to the direct substitution rule for limits.

How do you use compatible numbers to estimate the quotient $595 divided by 25
storchak [24]
Well, 25 certainly doesn't divide evenly into 595, but it does divide into 600, which is <em>very</em> close to 595. So if we divide 600 by 25, we can get a rough estimate of what 595 divided by 25 is.
\frac{600}{25} = 6* \frac{100}{25} = 6* 4=24

Apply the distributive property to write an equivalent expression in factored form: 12s + 18r
Kryger [21]
The most simplified answer is the greatest factor being six. Divide both by six and six is on the outside of parentheses to be equivalent making the answer 6(2s+18r) or -6(-2s-18r) if you used negatives as I would jot down negative and positive

Hello! Please Help Its just one simple Question ^^
Flura [38]

\\ \sf\longmapsto f(x)=112-kx

  • f(-3)=121

Put -3 in f(x)

\\ \sf\longmapsto f(-3)=121

\\ \sf\longmapsto 112-k(-3)=121

\\ \sf\longmapsto 112+3k=121

\\ \sf\longmapsto 3k=9

\\ \sf\longmapsto k=3
