<span>If you plug in 0, you get the indeterminate form 0/0. You can, therefore, apply L'Hopital's Rule to get the limit as h approaches 0 of e^(2+h),
which is just e^2.
</span><span><span><span>[e^(<span>2+h) </span></span>− <span>e^2]/</span></span>h </span>= [<span><span><span>e^2</span>(<span>e^h</span>−1)]/</span>h
</span><span>so in the limit, as h goes to 0, you'll notice that the numerator and denominator each go to zero (e^h goes to 1, and so e^h-1 goes to zero). This means the form is 'indeterminate' (here, 0/0), so we may use L'Hoptial's rule:
</span><span>
=<span>e^2</span></span>
a = 30
a = 16
-a² + 46a -480 = 0
(-a + 30) (a -16) = 0
(-a)(a) + (-a)(-16) + 30(a) + 30(-16) = 0
-a² + 16a + 30a -480 = 0
-a² + 46a - 480 = 0
(-a + 30) = 0 ; (a - 16) = 0
-a = -30 ; a = 16
a = 30
To check:
a = 30
-(30)² + 46(30) - 480 = 0
-900 + 1380 - 480 = 0
480 - 480 = 0
0 = 0
a = 16
-(16)² + 46(16) - 480 = 0
-256 + 736 - 480 = 0
480 - 480 = 0
0 = 0
For the third one, on the left side do 3-51.29 and keep doing it like that and you should get all the answers you need :)
Brand A: 32 Diapers, $8.99: about 28 cents per diaper
Brand B: 50 Diapers, $12.49: about 24 cents per diaper
You divide the amount of diapers by the money.
For example, 32 diapers/$8.99 equals about 28 cents per diaper and 50 diapers/$12.49 equals about 24 cents per diaper.
Brand B is the better deal since you save about 4 cents more.
