If f(x) = ln(2), then limx--->2 (f(2)-f(x))/x-2
1 answer:
Answer:
- as written, -2
- with denominator parentheses, 0
- with f(x)=ln(x) and denominator parentheses, -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem as stated asks for the limit as x approaches 2 of (0/x) -2.
As written, the limit is (0/2) -2 = -2.
<u>Explanation</u>: f(x) is a constant, so the numerator is 0. The ratio 0/x -2 is defined as -2 everywhere except x=0. So, the value at x=2 is 0/2 -2 = -2.

If you mean (f(2) -f(x))/(x -2), that limit is the limit of 0/(x-2) = 0 as x approaches 2.
<u>Explanation</u>: f(x) is a constant, so the numerator is 0. The ratio 0/(x-2) is zero everywhere except at x=2. The left limit and right limit are both 0 as x approaches 2. Since these limits agree, the limit is said to be 0.

If you mean f(x) = ln(x) and you want the limit of (f(2) -f(x))/(x -2), that value will be -1/2.
<u>Explanation</u>: The value of the ratio is 0/0 at x=2, so we can find the limit using L'Hôpital's rule. Differentiating numerator and denominator, we have ...
lim = (-1/x)/(1)
The value is -1/2 at x=2.

Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of ratio : 9 + 7 + 4 = 20
a)
Adele share :
b)
Barbara share :
Collette share :
c)
$ €
1.125 1
306 x
[cross multiply]
x = €272
Adele receives = €272
d)
Apple Cost
1 kg 2.69
5 kg y
y = 2.69 x 5 = $13.45
Cost of 5kg of apples = $13.45
Cost of 3 kg bananas = 17.56 - 13.45 = $4.11
Banana Cost
3kg 4.11
1 kg z
z = $1.37
Cost per kilogram of banana = $1.37
e) Collette share = $136
Half of it on clothes = (1/2) x 136 = $68
(1/5) of her share on books = (1/5) x 136 = 27.20
Balance amount with her = 136 - 27.20 - 68 = $ 40.80
