to calculate the slope m , use the ' gradient formula '

m = $\frac{y_{2-y_{1} } }{x_{2-x_{1} } }$

with ( $x_{1}$ , $y_{1}$ ) = (0, - 1 ) and ( $x_{2}$ , $y_{2}$ ) = (1, 5 )

m = $\frac{5+1}{1-0}$ = 6

A car rental company charges, y, for x, days. Days 3 4 5 6

VMariaS [17]

The equation of the car rental company in the form y = kx is; y = 18.50x

The equation y = kx is such that;

y = dependent variable

x = independent variable

k = constant of proportionality.

In essence; to determine the constant of proportionality, k in this case;

k = y/x

Since the company charges, $55.50 for 3 days; we have;

By evaluation k = $55.50/3

k = 18.50.

A constant rate of change means the variation in the dependent variable as dependent on the independent variable is constant

Calculus piecewise function.

Kipish [7]

Part A

The notation $\lim_{x \to 2^{+}}f(x)$ means that we're approaching x = 2 from the right hand side (aka positive side). This is known as a right hand limit.

So we could start at say x = 2.5 and get closer to 2 by getting to x = 2.4 then to x = 2.3 then 2.2, 2.1, 2.01, 2.001, etc

We don't actually arrive at x = 2 itself. We simply move closer and closer.

Since we're on the positive or right hand side of 2, this means we go with the rule involving x > 2

Therefore f(x) = (x/2) + 1

Plug in x = 2 to find that...

f(x) = (x/2) + 1

f(2) = (2/2) + 1

f(2) = 2

This shows $\lim_{x \to 2^{+}}f(x) = 2$

Then for the left hand limit $\lim_{x \to 2^{-}}f(x)$ , we'll involve x < 2 and we go for the first piece. So,

f(x) = 3-x

f(2) = 3-2

f(2) = 1

Therefore, $\lim_{x \to 2^{-}}f(x) = 1$

===============================================================

Part B

Because $\lim_{x \to 2^{+}}f(x) \ne \lim_{x \to 2^{-}}f(x)$ this means that the limit $\lim_{x \to 2}f(x)$ does not exist.

If you are a visual learner, check out the graph below of the piecewise function. Notice the gap or disconnect at x = 2. This can be thought of as two roads that are disconnected. There's no way for a car to go from one road to the other. Because of this disconnect, the limit doesn't exist at x = 2.

===============================================================

Part C

You'll follow the same type of steps shown in part A.

However, keep in mind that x = 4 is above x = 2, so we'll deal with x > 2 only.

So you'd only involve the second piece f(x) = (x/2) + 1

You should find that f(4) = 3, and that both left and right hand limits equal this value. The left and right hand limits approach the same y value. The limit does exist here. There are no gaps to worry about when x = 4.

===============================================================

Part D

As mentioned earlier, since $\lim_{x \to 4^{+}}f(x) = \lim_{x \to 4^{-}}f(x) = 3$ , this means the limit $\lim_{x \to 4}f(x)$ does exist and it's equal to 3.

As x gets closer and closer to 4, the y values are approaching 3. This applies to both directions.
