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

Evaluate the function requested. Write your answer as a fraction in lowest terms.<br> Find tan A.
jasenka [17]

For the given triangle, the tan of angle A equals C. \frac{5}{12}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; In the given triangle, the opposite side has a length of 15 units, the adjacent side has a length of 36 units while the hypotenuse of the triangle measures 39 units. To calculate the tan of angle A we divide the opposite side's length by the adjacent side's length.

cos A = \frac{oppositeside}{adjacentside}.

Step 2; The opposite side's length = 15 units,

The adjacent side's length = 36 units.

cos A = \frac{15}{36}, dividing the numerator and the denominator by 3, we get

cos A = \frac{5}{12}, which is option C.

An example of dependent events is drawing a blue marble out of one jar and then drawing a
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

<u>Answer:</u>

A red marble out of the same jar, without replacing the first marble.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Dependent events are those which involve a first event which affects the outcome of the second event.

This means that the probability of the second event changes because of the occurrence of the first event.

So if a blue marble is drawn out of one jar, then drawing a red marble out of the same jar, without replacing the first marble would be an example of dependent events.

Allushta [10]
Multiply both sides of the equation by 20. 2z-3-5(z-6)=60. 2z-3-5z+30=60. -3z-3+30=60. -3z+27=60. -3z=60-27. -3z=33. Divide both sides by 3. Answer is: Z= -11
