\lim\limits_{x\to9}\dfrac{x^2-81}{x-9}=\lim\limits_{x\to9}\dfrac{x^2-9^2}{x-9}=\lim\limits_{x\to9}\dfrac{(x+9)(x-9)}{x-9}=\lim\limits_{x\to9}(x+9)=\\\\\\=9+9=\boxed{18}

Answer:  The required value of the limit is 18.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the limit of the following function algebraically :

limit as x approaches nine of quantity x squared minus eighty one divided by quantity x minus nine.

We will be using the following factorization formula :

a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b).

The limit can be calculated as follows :

\ell\\\\\\=\lim_{x\rightarrow 81}\dfrac{x^2-81}{x-9}\\\\\\=\lim_{x\rightarrow 9}\dfrac{x^2-9^2}{x-9}\\\\\\=\lim_{x\rightarrow 9}\dfrac{(x+9)(x-9)}{(x-9)}\\\\=\lim_{x\rightarrow 9}(x+9)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~[\textup{since }x\rightarrow 9,~so~x\neq 9]\\\\=9+9\\\\=18.

Thus, the required value of the limit is 18.

STatiana [176]

A rectangular school banner has a length of 44 inches, a perimeter of 156 inches, and an area of 1,496 square inches. the cheerleaders make signs similar to the banner. the length of a sign is 11 inches. First solve the width of the rectangle:

1496 sq in/ 44 = 34 in

So the sign has also a width of 34 in and a length of 11 so the area is 34*11 =374 sq in

<span>The perimeter is (34*2) +(11*2) =90 in</span>

(URGENT) Madelina wants to make a prediction using a linear model with a correlation coefficient of 0.55.
alekssr [168]

Answer:

<h2>Her prediction will be somewhat likely to be close to the actual value.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

A correlation coefficient of 0.55 implies a weak positive correlation, because it's close to 0.50. Remember that strong correlations are 1 or -1, positive or negative, and the middle of the interval represents no correlation.

Having said that, 0.55 indicates some correlation, but weak. Therefore, the right answer is C.
