Step 1: Assign variable for the unknown that  you need to find.

d_w \; \rightarrow \; Distance \; you \; traveled \; by \; walk \; in \; miles \\ d_c \; \rightarrow \; Distance \; traveled \; by \; your \; friend \; using \; bicycle \; in \; miles  \\ t \; \rightarrow \; Time \; Taken \; in \; hours

Step 2: List the given details

Distance between you and your friend is 12 miles. It means the total distance traveled by you by walk and your friend using bicycle when both travel towards each other to meet in 't' hours

Equation 1:

d_w+d_c=12

Your Walking rate and your friends Cycling rate is given below:

r_w=4mph\\r_c=11mph

Step 3: Set up an equation using the relationship between distance, time and rate.

Distance=Rate \times Time

d_w=r_w \times t=4t \\\\ d_c = r_c \times t = 11t

Substituting the above in equation 1

4t+11t=12 \\ Combining \; Like \; Terms \\\\ 15t=12 \\ Dividing \; 15 \; on \; both \; sides \\\\ 15t \div 15=12 \div 15 \\\\ t=0.8 hours

Distance traveled by you by walking from home and distance travelled by your friend in cycle in 0.8 hours is given below:

d_w=4t=4(0.8)=3.2miles \\\\ d_c=11t=11(0.8)=8.8miles

Ask your teacher find the limit. use l'hospital's rule where appropriate. if there is a more elementary method, consider using i
liberstina [14]

Answer:

  ln(5/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The desired limit represents the logarithm of an indeterminate form, so L'Hopital's rule could be applied. However, the logarithm can be simplified to a form that is not indeterminate.

<h3>Limit</h3>

We can cancel factors of (x-1), which are what make the expression indeterminate at x=1. Then the limit can be evaluated directly by substituting x=1.

  \diplaystyle \lim\limits_{x\to1}{(\ln(x^5-1)-\ln(x^3-1))}=\lim\limits_{x\to1}\ln{\left(\dfrac{x^5-1}{x^3-1}\right)}\\\\=\lim\limits_{x\to1}\ln\left(\dfrac{x^4+x^3+x^2+x+1}{x^2+x+1}\right)=\ln{\dfrac{5}{3}}
