Answer:

The answer to your question is:

Packages of pencils = 6

Packages of erasers = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Pencils = 10/package

Erasers = 12 / package

Process

Find the least common factor of 10 and 12

                                    10     12     2

                                     5       6     2

                                     5       3     3

                                     5        1    5

                                      1

LCF = 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 60

Finally divide 60 by the number of pencils or erasers in each package

Packages of pencils = 60/10 = 6

Packages of erasers = 60/12 = 5

Suppose that a function​ f(x) is defined for all real values of x except at xequals=c. can anything be said about the existence
Margaret [11]

we are given that

f(x) is defined for all values of x except at x=c

Limit may or may not exist

case-1:

If there is hole at x=c , then limit exist

case-2:

If there is vertical asymptote at x=c , then limit does not exist

Examples:

case-1:

\lim_{x \to c} \frac{x^2-cx}{(x-c)}

We can simplify it

\lim_{x \to c} \frac{x(x-c)}{(x-c)}

=\lim_{x \to c} x

=c

so, we can see that limit exist and it's value defined

case-2:

\lim_{x \to c} \frac{1}{(x-c)}

Left limit is

\lim_{x \to c-} \frac{1}{(x-c)}

=-\infty

Right Limit is

\lim_{x \to c+} \frac{1}{(x-c)}

=+\infty

so, we can see that left limit is not equal to right limit

so, limit does not exist
