Answer:   9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the longest side of the acute triangle having other sides 5 inches and 8 inches,

Since, for the acute triangle,

(\text{longest side})^2< \text{ sum of the square of the other sides}

\implies x^2 < 5^2 + 8^2

\implies x^2< 25 + 64

\implies x^2 < 89

\implies x < 9.43398113\approx 9.434

Thus, the largest value of x ( whole number ) is 9.

From the given table, we have that the lateral limits of f(x) as x -> 3 are different, hence the limit of f(x) does not exist at x = 3.

<h3>What is a limit?</h3>

A limit is given by the value of function f(x) as x tends to a value. For the limit to exist, the lateral limits have to be the same, as follows:

\lim_{x \rightarrow a^-} f(x) = \lim_{x \rightarrow a^+} f(x)

In this problem, we have that:

  • To the left of x = 3, that is, for values that are less than x = 3, f(x) - > -3.
  • To the right of x = 3, that is, for values that are greater than x = 3, f(x) -> 4.

Hence the lateral limits are given as follows:

  • \lim_{x \rightarrow 3^-} f(x) = -3
  • \lim_{x \rightarrow 3^+} f(x) = 4

Since the lateral limits are different, the limit does not exist.

I need help understanding this and some answers quick
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

(x - 8)² = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 16x + 26 = - 24 ( subtract 26 from both sides )

x² - 16x = - 50

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 8)x + 64 = - 50 + 64

(x - 8)² = 14

Christy dove to a depth of 12 feet below the surface of the water. she then swam 12 feet back up to the surface. Use integers to
Sindrei [870]

Christy dove to the depth of 12 feet below the surface = -12 feet

(Below sea level means to be below zero, which are negative numbers)

Christy dove 12 feet back up to the surface= +12 feet

( When we come back up to the surface, the distance is taken always positive)

Therefore, we have to find the overall change,

Overall change = -12 feet + 12 feet

= -12 feet + 12 feet

= 0 ft.

Therefore, overall change is 0 ft.
