Answer:

2(x + 3) = x - 4

2x + 6 = x - 4 (Distribute 2)

x = -10 (Subtract x and 6)

Expand the brackets out via multiplication.

2x + 6 = x -4

Subtract 6 from both sides

2x = x - 10

Subtract x from both sides

x = -10

There’s your answer.

Given limit f(x) = 4 as x approaches 0. What is limit 1/4[f(x)]^4 as x approaches 0?

Answer:

$\displaystyle 64$

General Formulas and Concepts:

Calculus

Limits

Limit Rule [Variable Direct Substitution]: $\displaystyle \lim_{x \to c} x = c$

Limit Rule [Variable Direct Substitution Exponential]: $\displaystyle \lim_{x \to c} x^n = c^n$

Limit Property [Multiplied Constant]: $\displaystyle \lim_{x \to c} bf(x) = b \lim_{x \to c} f(x)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

$\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 0} f(x) = 4$

Step 2: Solve

Rewrite [Limit Property - Multiplied Constant]: $\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{1}{4}[f(x)]^4 = \frac{1}{4} \lim_{x \to 0} [f(x)]^4$
Evaluate limit [Limit Rule - Variable Direct Substitution Exponential]: $\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{1}{4}[f(x)]^4 = \frac{1}{4}(4^4)$
Simplify: $\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{1}{4}[f(x)]^4 = 64$
