Answer: The answer is 449100 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that the weight of an iceberg is 450,000 pounds. It looses 0.2% of weight everyday. We are to find the new weight of the iceberg at the end of the day.

Weight lost by the iceberg in one day will be

$w_l=0.2\%\times 450000=\dfrac{0.2}{100}\times 450000=900~\textup{pounds}.$

Therefore, the new weight of the iceberg at the end of the day will be

$W_n=450000-w_l=450000-900=449100~\textup{pounds}.$

Thus, the answer is 449100 pounds.

Find the indicated limit, if it exists. limit of f of x as x approaches 9 where f of x equals x plus 9 when x is less than 9 and

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

B. 18

Step-by-step explanation:

For the function

$f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{l}x+9,\ \ x$

we can find the value of the function for all x that are very close to 9 but are less than 9 and for all values of x that are very close to 9 but are greater than 9.

1. For $x$

$\lim \limits_{x\rightarrow 9}f(x)=\lim \limits_{x\rightarrow 9}(x+9)=9+9=18$

2. For $x\ge 9:$

$\lim \limits_{x\rightarrow 9}f(x)=\lim \limits_{x\rightarrow 9}(27-x)=27-9=18$

So, limit exists and is equal to 18.

Answer:

Answer Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle #1

To solve this answer we need to multiply then <em>divide by 2</em>

$3$ x $8=24$

$24$ ÷ $2=12$

12

Triangle #2

Now we do the same thing!

$3$ x $8=24$

$24$ ÷ $2=12$

12

Rectangle #1

<em>Now we solve for the rectangle!</em>

$6$ x $8 = 48$

48

Now we add all these together!

$12 + 12 + 48 = 72$

<em>The answer is D. 72 Square Units</em>

A sporting goods store has a sale on soccer balls: if you buy two soccer balls at the regular price, you get a third soccer ball

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The regular price of the balls is $8

Step-by-step explanation:

The sporting goods store sales promotion is as follows;

The price of the third ball after buying two balls at regular price = $1.00

The price of the number of balls Coach John pays for the balls he bought = $136

To buy 24 balls, we have;

2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1

Therefore;

The number of balls bought at regular price = The sum of the 2s = 16 balls

The number of balls bought for $1 = 24 - 16 = 8 balls

Let x represent the regular price of the balls, we have;

16 × x + 8 = 136

16·x = 138 - 8 = 128

x = 128/16 = 8

The regular price of the balls = x = $8.
