Hello here is a solution :
let A(-6;4)  O(0;0) B(x; 0)
i'have : OA² = OB²+AB² ( pytagore theorem)
 OA² = (-6-0)² +(4-0)² = 36 +16 =52
 OB² = (x-0)² + (0-0)² = x²
AB²  = (x+6)² +(0-4)² = x²+12x+36 +16 = x²+12x+52
52 = x² + x²+12x+52
2x² +12x=0
2x(x+6) =0
2x=0 or x+6 = 0
x=0  or x= -6
conclusion : x = -6
if x = 0 i' have not the <span>triangle</span>

*(The bottom part is x as it approaches infinity)*
Bess [88]

\bf \lim\limits_{x\to \infty}~\left( \cfrac{1}{8} \right)^x\implies \lim\limits_{x\to \infty}~\cfrac{1^x}{8^x}\\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{x = 10}{\cfrac{1^{10}}{8^{10}}}\implies \cfrac{1}{8^{10}}~~,~~ \stackrel{x = 1000}{\cfrac{1^{1000}}{8^{1000}}}\implies \cfrac{1}{8^{1000}}~~,~~ \stackrel{x = 100000000}{\cfrac{1^{100000000}}{8^{100000000}}}\implies \cfrac{1}{8^{100000000}}~~,~~ ...

now, if we look at the values as "x" races fast towards ∞, we can as you see above, use the values of 10, 1000, 100000000 and so on, as the value above oddly enough remains at 1, it could have been smaller but it's constantly 1 in this case, the value at the bottom is ever becoming a larger and larger denominator.

let's recall that the larger the denominator, the smaller the fraction, so the expression is ever going towards a tiny and tinier and really tinier fraction, a fraction that is ever approaching 0.

I need help on this question if you know the answer pls help me
vichka [17]

Known fact:

  • $100 dollars for 8 hours of work --> $100 / 8hrs = $12.50 dollars/hrs

Two hours of work = $12.50 dollars/hr * 2hrs = $25 dollars

Six hours of work = $12.50 dollars/hr * 6hrs = $75

Ten hours of work = $12.50 dollars/hr * 10hrs = $125

fourteen hours of work = $12.50 dollars/hr * 14hrs = $175

Thus the answer is the bottom left choice.
