A rectangular container has a base that is 12 inches long and 8 inches wide. The container is filled with water to a height of 6

inches. If all the water is poured into a second container with a square base, it will rise to a height of 16 inches. What is the length of one edge of the square base of the second container?

Answer: the length of one edge of the square base of the second container is 6 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the volume of a rectangular container is expressed as

Volume = length × width × height

Considering the first container,

Length = 12 inches

Width = 8 inches

Height to which the water is filled is 6 inches.

Therefore, volume of water in the container is

12 × 8 × 6 = 576 inches³

Considering the second container,

Height of water = 16 inches

Let L represent the length of the square base. Then the area of the square base is L²

Volume of water would be 16L²

Since the water in the first container was poured into the second container, then

16L² = 576

L² = 576/16 = 36

L = √36

L = 6 inches

If the limit of f(x) as x approaches 8 is 3, can you conclude anything about f(8)?
natali 33 [55]

If the limit of f(x) as x approaches 8 is 3, can you conclude anything about f(8)? The answer is No. We cannot. See the explanation below.

<h3>What is the justification for the above position?</h3>

Again, 'No,' is the response to this question. The justification for this is that the value of a function does not depend on the function's limit at a given moment.

This is particularly clear when we consider a question with a gap. A rational function with a hole is an excellent example that will help you answer this question.

The limit of a function at a position where there is a hole in the function will exist, but the value of the function will not.

<h3>What is limit in Math?</h3>

A limit is the result that a function (or sequence) approaches when the input (or index) near some value in mathematics.

Limits are used to set continuity, derivatives, and integrals in calculus and mathematical analysis.
