x=\sqrt{2x+24}\\
x\geq 0 \wedge 2x+24\geq0\\
x\geq 0 \wedge 2x\geq-24\\
x\geq 0 \wedge x\geq-12\\
x\geq0\\\\
x=\sqrt{2x+24}\\
x^2=2x+24\\
x^2-2x-24=0\\
x^2+4x-6x-24=0\\
x(x+4)-6(x+4)=0\\
(x-6)(x+4)=0\\
x=6 \vee x=-4\\\\
-4\not \geq 0

So, <span>6 is a solution to the original equation. The value –4 is an extraneous solution.</span>

What is the slope of a line parallel to the line whose equation is y - x = 5?
Ghella [55]
A parallel line would have the same slope as the given line so first you'd rewrite the equation y-x=5 to y=x+5 the slope is the x value so the slope is 1.

Use algebra to simplify the expression before evaluating the limit. In particular, factor the highest power of n from the numera
bija089 [108]

Answer:

a) {2/n²-7/n+9}/{8+2/n-6/n²}

b) 9/8

c) The sequence converges

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the limit of the function

limn→[infinity]2−7n+9n²/8n²+2n−6

To simplify the function given, we will have to factor out the highest power of n which is n² from the numerator and the denominator. The function will then become;

2−7n+9n²/8n²+2n−6

= n²{2/n²-7/n+9}/n²{8+2/n-6/n²}

The n² at the numerator will then cancel out the n² at the denominator to have resulting simplified equation as;

{2/n²-7/n+9}/{8+2/n-6/n²}

Evaluating the limit of the resulting equation will give;

limn→[infinity] {2/n²-7/n+9}/{8+2/n-6/n²}

Note that limn→[infinity] a/n = 0 where a is any constant.

Therefore;

limn→[infinity] {2/n²-7/n+9}/{8+2/n-6/n²}

= (0-0+9)/(8+0-0)

= 9/8

Since the limit of the sequence gives a finite value which is 9/8, thus the sequence in question is a convergent sequence.

The limit of a sequence only diverges if the limit of such sequence is an infinite value.

Hello there!

I’m not sure if they want me to add the answers together or just do them separately.

Exponents
(-2)^2=(-2)(-2)=4
(7/6)^2=7/6(7/6)=49/36

I hope this helps!
