A. Factor the numerator as a difference of squares:

\displaystyle\lim_{x\to9}\frac{x-9}{\sqrt x-3}=\lim_{x\to9}\frac{(\sqrt x-3)(\sqrt x+3)}{\sqrt x-3}=\lim_{x\to9}(\sqrt x+3)=6

c. As x\to\infty, the contribution of the terms of degree less than 2 becomes negligible, which means we can write

\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{4x^2-4x-8}{x^2-9}=\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{4x^2}{x^2}=\lim_{x\to\infty}4=4

e. Let's first rewrite the root terms with rational exponents:

\displaystyle\lim_{x\to1}\frac{\sqrt[3]x-x}{\sqrt x-x}=\lim_{x\to1}\frac{x^{1/3}-x}{x^{1/2}-x}

Next we rationalize the numerator and denominator. We do so by recalling

(a-b)(a+b)=a^2-b^2
(a-b)(a^2+ab+b^2)=a^3-b^3

In particular,

(x^{1/3}-x)(x^{2/3}+x^{4/3}+x^2)=x-x^3
(x^{1/2}-x)(x^{1/2}+x)=x-x^2

so we have

\displaystyle\lim_{x\to1}\frac{x^{1/3}-x}{x^{1/2}-x}\cdot\frac{x^{2/3}+x^{4/3}+x^2}{x^{2/3}+x^{4/3}+x^2}\cdot\frac{x^{1/2}+x}{x^{1/2}+x}=\lim_{x\to1}\frac{x-x^3}{x-x^2}\cdot\frac{x^{1/2}+x}{x^{2/3}+x^{4/3}+x^2}

For x\neq0 and x\neq1, we can simplify the first term:

\dfrac{x-x^3}{x-x^2}=\dfrac{x(1-x^2)}{x(1-x)}=\dfrac{x(1-x)(1+x)}{x(1-x)}=1+x

So our limit becomes

\displaystyle\lim_{x\to1}\frac{(1+x)(x^{1/2}+x)}{x^{2/3}+x^{4/3}+x^2}=\frac{(1+1)(1+1)}{1+1+1}=\frac43

bob left work and traveled to school at an average speed of 25 mph. if it took bob 35 minutes to reach school, how far is bobs s
Alchen [17]
Rate x time = distance
25   x  35/60 = distance  (35/60 is 35 minutes out of an hour- 60 minutes)
25/1 x 7/12  = distance (I put the 25 over 1 and reduced 35/60)
175/12 ≈ 14.58 miles

Notice that the time had to be in a fraction of an hour in order to do this.

How many houses have an area less than 100 m² ?
dsp73

Answer:

This question overall depends on a continuously changing factor.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are many houses in this world that have an area of less than 100 m^2, while many others have up to 700, 800, or even 1000 m^2 of land. Your question is impossible to calculate because of the massive amount of houses in this world. If you want a good estimate, say around 0.9 to 1.8 billion.
