a) Since both limits are <em>distinct</em> and do not exist, we conclude that x = - 1 is not part of the domain of the <em>rational</em> function.
b) The function
is equivalent to the function
.
<h3>How to determine whether a limit exists or not</h3>
According to theory of limits, a function f(x) exists for x = a if and only if
. This criterion is commonly used to prove continuity of functions.
<em>Rational</em> functions are not continuous for all value of x, as there are x-values that make denominator equal to 0. Based on the figure given below, we have the following <em>lateral</em> limits:


Since both limits are <em>distinct</em> and do not exist, we conclude that x = - 1 is not part of the domain of the <em>rational</em> function.
In addition, we can simplify the function by <em>algebra</em> properties:


The function
is equivalent to the function
.

Answer:
the answer are x=4 and y=-3. answer C
The marked price of an article is 25% above its cost price when it is sold at a discount of 15%
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
4×4=16 (4 squared)
16-4=12 (4 is 12 less than its suare =16)
