Answer:
See explanation and hopefully it answers your question.
Basically because the expression has a hole at x=3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let h(x)=( x^2-k ) / ( hx-15 )
This function, h, has a hole in the curve at hx-15=0 if it also makes the numerator 0 for the same x value.
Solving for x in that equation:
Adding 15 on both sides:
hx=15
Dividing both sides by h:
x=15/h
For it be a hole, you also must have the numerator is zero at x=15/h.
x^2-k=0 at x=15/h gives:
(15/h)^2-k=0
225/h^2-k=0
k=225/h^2
So if we wanted to evaluate the following limit:
Lim x->15/h ( x^2-k ) / ( hx-15 )
Or
Lim x->15/h ( x^2-(225/h^2) ) / ( hx-15 ) you couldn't use direct substitution because of the hole at x=15/h.
We were ask to evaluate
Lim x->3 ( x^2-k ) / ( hx-15 )
Comparing the two limits h=5 and k=225/h^2=225/25=9.
Since its telling you that x is the number of years and the question is "How much does the cost of milk increase EVERY YEAR" then you can conclude that the cost is increasing by 0.25 each year
Answer:
0.56 14/25
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y=-4/6+2
Step-by-step explanation:
The rise is -4, and the run is 6. Rise over run means that the slope is -4/6. the Y intercept is 2. Therefore y=-4/6+2.
