4 can hold 8 gallons = 8/4 = 2 big bottle per gallons.

For 10 big bottles = 10 x 2 = 20 gallons.

If you are looking for how many bottles can be filled with 10 gallons, the answer is 5.

Let x represent the gallons you are finding
If 4=8 then,
10=x
You cross multiply
4x = 10*8
4x /4= 80/4
x = 20

If lim x-> infinity ((x^2)/(x+1)-ax-b)=0 find the value of a and b

MAXImum [283]

We have

$\dfrac{x^2}{x+1}=\dfrac{(x+1)^2-2(x+1)+1}{x+1}=(x+1)-2+\dfrac1{x+1}=x-1+\dfrac1{x+1}$

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty}\left(\frac{x^2}{x+1}-ax-b\right)=\lim_{x\to\infty}\left(x-1+\frac1{x+1}-ax-b\right)=0$

The rational term vanishes as x gets arbitrarily large, so we can ignore that term, leaving us with

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty}\left((1-a)x-(1+b)\right)=0$

and this happens if a = 1 and b = -1.

To confirm, we have

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty}\left(\frac{x^2}{x+1}-x+1\right)=\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{x^2-(x-1)(x+1)}{x+1}=\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac1{x+1}=0$

as required.

Rewrite 16/9 as a mixed number.

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

To find the answer, to convert a improper into mixed, first take the denominator (9) and find how many times it can go into the numerator (16) FULLY. The answer is 1 time. 1 is the whole number. Then whatever is leftover is the new numerator, and the old denominator is the same. So your answer is 1 7/9

Hope this helps!
