8.2 Ounces because it says a HORSESHOE Weighs.  They threw in the nails weight to throw you off.

8.2=82/10

0.2=1/5

---------------------

1/5*82/10=82/50

---------------------

82/10-82/50

=820/100-164/100

=656/100

=6.56

Answer: 6.56 ounces

Amelia used 6 liters of gasoline to drive 48 kilometers.
Margarita [4]
For every liter she used, she drove 8 kilometers. In this problem you are finding the unit rate. In order to do this you divide 48 (kilometers) by 6 (liters of gasoline).

48 Divided by 6 equals to 6 Kilometers
—- —-
6 Divided by 6 equals to 1 Liter

For the second question you divide the liter by 6. Amelia used 0.1666 liters of gasoline per kilometer. 0.1666 is equivalent to 1/6.

I'm stuck on this question, any ideas? thanks

Answer:

\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\frac{1}{6+x}-\frac{1}{6}}{x}=-1/36

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the limit:

\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\frac{1}{6+x}-\frac{1}{6}}{x}

Let's remove the fractions in the denominator by multiplying both layers by (6+x)(6). So:

\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\frac{1}{6+x}-\frac{1}{6}}{x}\cdot (\frac{(6+x)(6)}{(6+x)(6)})

Distribute:

=\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{(6)-(6+x)}{x(6+x)(6)}

Simplify the numerator:

=\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{6-6-x}{x(6+x)(6)}\\=\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{-x}{x(6+x)(6)}

Both the numerator and the denominator have an x. Cancel:

=\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{-1}{(6+x)(6)}

Direct substitution:

= \frac{-1}{(6+0)(6)}

Simplify:

=-1/36

And that's our answer.

And we're done!
