Answer:

Alfredo

Step-by-step explanation:

He should choose Alfredo because he shot the highest percentage of 75% or 15 of 20 shots that he made. Whereas Tony only made 14 out of 20 which is 65% and Martin only made 60% or 13 out of 20, so as a coach you want to choose your best shooter.

When we approach limits, we are finding values that are infinitesimally approaching this x-value. Essentially, we consider the approximate location that this root or limit appears. This is essential when it comes to taking Calculus, and finding the limit or rate of change of a function.

When we are attempting limits questions, there are several tests we attempt first.

1. Evaluate the limit by substituting the value of the x-value as it approaches the value (direct evaluation of a limit)
2. Rearrangement of the function, such that we can evaluate the limit.
3. (TRIGONOMETRIC PROPERTIES)
\lim_{x \to 0} (\frac{sinx}{x}) = 1
\lim_{x \to 0} (\frac{tanx}{x}) = 1
4. Using L'Hopital's Rule for indeterminate limits, such as 0/0, -infinity/infinity, or infinity/infinity.

For example:

1) \lim_{x \to 0}\frac{\sqrt{x} - 5}{x - 25}

We can do this using the first and second method.
<em>Method 1: Direct evaluation:</em>

Substitute x = 0 to the function.
\frac{\sqrt{0} - 5}{0 - 25}
= \frac{-5}{-25}
= \frac{1}{5}

<em>Method 2: Rearranging the function
</em>

We can see that x - 25 can be rewritten as: (√x - 5)(√x + 5)
By rewriting it in this form, the top will cancel with the bottom easily, and our limit comes out the same.

\lim_{x \to 0}\frac{(\sqrt{x} - 5)}{(\sqrt{x} - 5)(\sqrt{x} + 5)}
= \lim_{x \to 0}\frac{1}{(\sqrt{x} + 5)}}
= \frac{1}{5}

Every example works exactly the same way, and by remembering these criteria, every limit question should come out pretty naturally.

tom ate 1/4 of a pizza. He divided the leftover pizza into pieces each equal to 1/12 of the Original Pizza. After he gave some f
Bezzdna [24]
To make this easy let covert everything using a LCD.

The LCD of 1/4  1/12 and 1/6  is 12. This becomes...

Tom ate 3/12 of the pizza.
Leftover pizza = 9/12.
Slices were 1/12.
X friends got pizza.
Remaining pizza is 2/12.

if each friend got 1 piece(1/12)....
9/12(Leftovers) - 2/12(remaining)  = 7/12

So 7 friends got pizza.
