Suppose you randomly select a letter from BURGER AND STARBIRD. Imagine writing these letters on Ping-Pong balls – one letter per

ball – then putting them all in a barrel and removing one. What is the probability of pulling out an R? What is the probability of pulling out a B? What is the probability of pulling out a letter that appears in the first half of the alphabet? What is the probability of pulling a vowel?

B U R G E R      =  6 letters
S T A R B I R D =  8 letters
                             14 letters in all

B = 2 ; U = 1 ; R = 4 ; G = 1 ; E = 1 ; S = 1 ; T = 1 ; A = 1 ; I = 1 ; D = 1

Probability of pulling out an R: 4/14
Probability of pulling out a B: 2/14
Probability of pulling out a letter that appears in the first half of the alphabet: 7/14
Probability of pulling a vowel: 4/14

Answer:

<u />\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{\sqrt{x + 1} - 2}{x - 3} = \boxed{ \frac{1}{4} }

General Formulas and Concepts:

Limits

Limit Rule [Variable Direct Substitution]:
\displaystyle \lim_{x \to c} x = c

Special Limit Rule [L’Hopital’s Rule]:
\displaystyle \lim_{x \to c} \frac{f(x)}{g(x)} = \lim_{x \to c} \frac{f'(x)}{g'(x)}

Differentiation

  • Derivatives
  • Derivative Notation

Derivative Property [Addition/Subtraction]:
\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}[f(x) + g(x)] = \frac{d}{dx}[f(x)] + \frac{d}{dx}[g(x)]
Derivative Rule [Basic Power Rule]:

  1. f(x) = cxⁿ
  2. f’(x) = c·nxⁿ⁻¹

Derivative Rule [Chain Rule]:
\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}[f(g(x))] =f'(g(x)) \cdot g'(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify given limit</em>.

\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{\sqrt{x + 1} - 2}{x - 3}

<u>Step 2: Find Limit</u>

Let's start out by <em>directly</em> evaluating the limit:

  1. [Limit] Apply Limit Rule [Variable Direct Substitution]:
    \displaystyle \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{\sqrt{x + 1} - 2}{x - 3} = \frac{\sqrt{3 + 1} - 2}{3 - 3}
  2. Evaluate:
    \displaystyle \begin{aligned}\lim_{x \to 3} \frac{\sqrt{x + 1} - 2}{x - 3} & = \frac{\sqrt{3 + 1} - 2}{3 - 3} \\& = \frac{0}{0} \leftarrow \\\end{aligned}

When we do evaluate the limit directly, we end up with an indeterminant form. We can now use L' Hopital's Rule to simply the limit:

  1. [Limit] Apply Limit Rule [L' Hopital's Rule]:
    \displaystyle \begin{aligned}\lim_{x \to 3} \frac{\sqrt{x + 1} - 2}{x - 3} & = \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{(\sqrt{x + 1} - 2)'}{(x - 3)'} \\\end{aligned}
  2. [Limit] Differentiate [Derivative Rules and Properties]:
    \displaystyle \begin{aligned}\lim_{x \to 3} \frac{\sqrt{x + 1} - 2}{x - 3} & = \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{(\sqrt{x + 1} - 2)'}{(x - 3)'} \\& = \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x + 1}} \leftarrow \\\end{aligned}
  3. [Limit] Apply Limit Rule [Variable Direct Substitution]:
    \displaystyle \begin{aligned}\lim_{x \to 3} \frac{\sqrt{x + 1} - 2}{x - 3} & = \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{(\sqrt{x + 1} - 2)'}{(x - 3)'} \\& = \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x + 1}} \\& = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{3 + 1}} \leftarrow \\\end{aligned}
  4. Evaluate:
    \displaystyle \begin{aligned}\lim_{x \to 3} \frac{\sqrt{x + 1} - 2}{x - 3} & = \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{(\sqrt{x + 1} - 2)'}{(x - 3)'} \\& = \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x + 1}} \\& = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{3 + 1}} \\& = \boxed{ \frac{1}{4} } \\\end{aligned}

∴ we have <em>evaluated</em> the given limit.

Find three right triangles based upon the Pythagorean Triple of 8, 15, and 17. Explain how you know these are triangles.
Luba_88 [7]
A^2 + b^2 = c^2
8^2 + 15^2 = 17^2
64 + 225 = 289
289=289
It is a triangle because the numbers match the Pythagorean Theorem.

Find the missing variable for a parallelogram:
irakobra [83]
Since the formula to find the area of a parallelogram is base times height (A=bh), and you have been given the area and base already, you can set up an equation. Let h=height in this formula. h x 3.4 = 25. Using this formula, to find the height, you would divide 25 by 3.4 and get approximately 7.35 inches. So, your height= 7.35in. Hope this helps!
