I believe that is Algeria .
If you think about how it works when cups are stacked. you will begin with the height of the cup plus the height of the lip you would then add just the heigt of the lips until you get to the height needed. so your answer should be 19 cups
Answer:
See explanation and hopefully it answers your question.
Basically because the expression has a hole at x=3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let h(x)=( x^2-k ) / ( hx-15 )
This function, h, has a hole in the curve at hx-15=0 if it also makes the numerator 0 for the same x value.
Solving for x in that equation:
Adding 15 on both sides:
hx=15
Dividing both sides by h:
x=15/h
For it be a hole, you also must have the numerator is zero at x=15/h.
x^2-k=0 at x=15/h gives:
(15/h)^2-k=0
225/h^2-k=0
k=225/h^2
So if we wanted to evaluate the following limit:
Lim x->15/h ( x^2-k ) / ( hx-15 )
Or
Lim x->15/h ( x^2-(225/h^2) ) / ( hx-15 ) you couldn't use direct substitution because of the hole at x=15/h.
We were ask to evaluate
Lim x->3 ( x^2-k ) / ( hx-15 )
Comparing the two limits h=5 and k=225/h^2=225/25=9.
