Find the limit and confirm using the Sandwich Theorem: lim x->infinity (1 - cosx) / (x^2)

1 answer:

6 0

We are given with the expression (1 - cos x) / (x^2) and asked to evaluate the expression to limit as theta approaches zero. In this case, we substitute first zero. cos infinity is 1. The answer is zero over zero. This is indeterminate so we derive the terms according to L'hopital's rule. The derivative is sin x /2x. sin infinity is 1. 1/infinity is equal to zero. Hence the answer is zero.

The first step in calculating the mean is to ____the numbers add group

Blababa [14]

The first step in calculating the mean is to add the numbers. After that you divide by the number of items in the data set. You don’t need to group the numbers to find the mean. Hope this helped!

in a certain chemical, the ratio if zinc to copper is 3 to 16. a jar of the chemical contains 320 grams of copper. how many gram

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

60 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

For these type of questions, we can equate the ratio with the actual amounts. We will let the quantity to find be an unknown variable, such as x. Then we equate the ratios, cross multiply, and use algebra to solve.

Let grams of zinc be "x", so we can write the ratios and actual amounts as:

$\frac{3}{16}=\frac{x}{320}$

Then we cross multiply and solve for x, what we want to find out. Shown below:

$\frac{3}{16}=\frac{x}{320}\\16x =3 * 320\\16x = 960\\x = \frac{960}{16}\\x=60$

There are 60 grams of zinc.

Determine the value of x when y= 14, if y=7 when x=8

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

x=16

Step-by-step explanation:

since y=7 when x=8 and your trying to find what x is when y=14. Your really just taking the y value which is 7 then multiplying it by 2 which is 14. then since you multiplied the first y value by 2 you then just multiply the 8 by 2 and that is 16.
