Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the missing sides measurement.

x+x+28=52

combine like terms

2x + 28 = 52

subtract 28 from both sides

2x + 28 = 52

     - 28  - 28

2x = 24

divide both sides by 2

x = 12

plug it back in

one leg is 12 inches

the other leg is 40 inches

Answers:
The limit as x approaches 3 does not exist (DNE)

The function value f(3) is equal to 5, so f(3) = 5

In short, the answer is choice B

=============================================

Explanations:

Let's start with computing the limit. First locate 3 on the x axis. Then move slightly to the left of 3, say to x = 2. Draw a vertical line upward until you hit the function curve. Mark the point on the function curve and then drag that point closer and closer to x = 3. Notice how y is getting loser to y = 3.

Then do the same for the other side of x = 3. Start at x = 4 and move to the left to get to x = 3. Get closer and closer, and you'll notice that y is getting closer to y = 5. These two differing y values tell us that the limit as x approaches 3 does not exist. 

Alternatively: The left hand limit (LHL) and right hand limit (RHL) are different, so the overall limit does not exist. 

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

The function value f(3) is simply 5 because we draw a vertical line through x = 3 and it intersects the function at (3,5). Take note how I'm focusing on the closed circle and not the open circle. The open circle is a gap or hole in the graph.

Note: because the limit at x = 3 and the function value at x = 3 differ, this means we have a discontinuity.

Suppose M is the midpoint of FG. Find the missing measure.<br> FM = 2k - 5, FG = 18
Illusion [34]

Answer:

k= 7

Step-by-step explanation:

if m is the midpoint of fm, and fm= 2k-5. and fg=18. then you can do: 2k-5+2k-5=18 and solve for x
