For $x\neq a$ , we have

$\dfrac{x^2-a^2}{x-a}=\dfrac{(x-a)(x+a)}{x-a}=x+a$

So for $g(x)$ to be continuous at $x=a$ , we require that the limit as $x\to a$ is equal to 4.

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to a}g(x)=\lim_{x\to a}(x+a)=2a=4\implies a=2$

Which phrase describes a nonlinear function?

Lorico [155]

The only non-linear equation from your choices is the area of a circle as it is:

A=πr^2 and if you take the derivative of A you have:

dA/dr=2πr

So the rate of change changes as r changes, it is not constant thus the function has acceleration, so velocity changes.

This is in contrast to any linear equation which is of the form:

y=mx+b now taking the derivative you see that:

dy/dx=m, now m is a constant value, which means that there is no acceleration and the velocity remains constant.

Alina is able to swim at a rate of about 2.5 miles per hour. Talia is able to swim at a rate of 1.8 meters per second. Which sta

Masja [62]

Answer: Option 'D' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Rate at which Alina swim = 2.5 miles per hour

Rate at which Talia swim = 1.8 meters per second

First we need to change meters per second into miles per hour

As we have given that

$1\text{ miles}=1609\text{ meters}$
