What is 258/300 as a percent

Step2247 [10]

To transform it into percent we want to have 100 into denominator. The easiest way is divide numerator and denominator by 3 (thats because than it doesnt change the value of fraction), so:
$\frac{258}{300}= \frac{258:3}{300:3}= \frac{86}{100} = 86%$ - its the result

Find lim ?x approaches 0 f(x+?x)-f(x)/?x where f(x) = 4x-3

Whitepunk [10]

If $f(x)=4x-3$ :

$\displaystyle\lim_{\Delta x\to0}\frac{(4(x+\Delta x)-3)-(4x-3)}{\Delta x}=\lim_{\Delta x\to0}\frac{4\Delta x}{\Delta x}=4$

If $f(x)=4x^{-3}$ :

$\displaystyle\lim_{\Delta x\to0}\frac{\frac4{(x+\Delta x)^3}-\frac4{x^3}}{\Delta x}=\lim_{\Delta x\to0}\frac{\frac{4x^3-4(x+\Delta x)^3}{x^3(x+\Delta x)^3}}{\Delta x}$

$\displaystyle=\lim_{\Delta x\to0}\frac{4x^3-4(x^3+3x^2\Delta x+3x(\Delta x)^2+(\Delta x)^3)}{x^3\Delta x(x+\Delta x)^3}$

$\displaystyle=\lim_{\Delta x\to0}\frac{-12x^2\Delta x-12x(\Delta x)^2-4(\Delta x)^3}{x^3\Delta x(x+\Delta x)^3}=-\frac{12}{x^4}$
