Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have procent:

520 —-> 100%

572 ——> x%

So, it is:

520*x=572*100

X=57200/520=110%

110%-100%=10%

Which expression has the greatest value when x=3

Luden [163]

Answer:

The third expression: (2x)^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in 3 for x in each expression

2x^3

2(3)^3

Use PEMDAS

2 (3 × 3 × 3)

2 (9 × 3)

2 (27)

54

2x^3 + 5

(The last expression told us 2x^3 = 54 so feel free to use this information to make life easier)

54 + 5

59

(2x)^3

(2 × 3)^3

Use PEMDAS

6^3

6 × 6 × 6

36 × 6

216

(x - 1)^3

(3 - 1)^3

Use PEMDAS

2^3

2 × 2 × 2

4 × 2

8

216 is the greatest value so the third expression is the answer

Use properties of limits and algebraic methods to find the limit, if it exists. (If the limit is infinite, enter '[infinity]' or

Answer:

The limit of this function does not exist.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\lim_{x \to 3} f(x)$

$f(x)=\left \{ {{9-3x} \quad if \>{x \>< \>3} \atop {x^{2}-x }\quad if \>{x\ \geq \>3 }} \right.$

To find the limit of this function you always need to evaluate the one-sided limits. In mathematical language the limit exists if

$\lim_{x \to a^{-}} f(x) = \lim_{x \to a^{+}} f(x) =L$

and the limit does not exist if

$\lim_{x \to a^{-}} f(x) \neq \lim_{x \to a^{+}} f(x)$

Evaluate the one-sided limits.

The left-hand limit

$\lim_{x \to 3^{-} } 9-3x= \lim_{x \to 3^{-} } 9-3*3=0$

The right-hand limit

$\lim_{x \to 3^{+} } x^{2} -x= \lim_{x \to 3^{+} } 3^{2}-3 =6$

Because the limits are not the same the limit does not exist.
