Set up a proportion:

$288/$48000 = x/$59000

Cross multiply

16992000 = 48000x

x = 354

The tax on the $59000 house was $354

Use properties of limits and algebraic methods to find the limit, if it exists. (If the limit is infinite, enter '[infinity]' or

Answer:

The limit of this function does not exist.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\lim_{x \to 3} f(x)$

$f(x)=\left \{ {{9-3x} \quad if \>{x \>< \>3} \atop {x^{2}-x }\quad if \>{x\ \geq \>3 }} \right.$

To find the limit of this function you always need to evaluate the one-sided limits. In mathematical language the limit exists if

$\lim_{x \to a^{-}} f(x) = \lim_{x \to a^{+}} f(x) =L$

and the limit does not exist if

$\lim_{x \to a^{-}} f(x) \neq \lim_{x \to a^{+}} f(x)$

Evaluate the one-sided limits.

The left-hand limit

$\lim_{x \to 3^{-} } 9-3x= \lim_{x \to 3^{-} } 9-3*3=0$

The right-hand limit

$\lim_{x \to 3^{+} } x^{2} -x= \lim_{x \to 3^{+} } 3^{2}-3 =6$

Because the limits are not the same the limit does not exist.

The radius of the large sphere is double the radius of the small sphere. How many times is the volume of the large sphere than t

kobusy [5.1K]

The volume of a sphere is $\cfrac{4}{3}\ \pi r^3$

So, if the small sphere has radius $r$ and the largest sphere has radius $2r$ , their volumes are

$V_1 = \cfrac{4}{3}\ \pi r^3,\quad V_2 = \cfrac{4}{3}\ \pi (2r)^3 = \cfrac{4}{3}\ \pi 8r^3$

So, their ratio is

$\cfrac{V_2}{V_1} = \cfrac{\frac{4}{3}\ \pi 8r^3}{\frac{4}{3}\ \pi r^3} = 8$
