Let
x = loaves of bread
y = batches of muffins
You must make a system of two equations with two unknowns that describe the problem
3.5x + 2.5y = 17 --- (1)
0.75x + 0.75y = 4.5 --- (2)
Resolving we have
x = 6-y (from (2))
replacing in (1)
3.5 (6-y) + 2.5y = 17
21 - 3.5y + 2.5y = 17
y = 21-17 = 4
Then substituting in (2)
x = 6-y = 6-4 = 2
Answer
Helena could bake:
2 loaves of bread
4 batches of muffins
3x = x / 2
Mmc (2,1) = 2
6x = x
6x- x = 0
5x= 0
x = 0/5
x = 0
The limit does not exist. Why? Because the left hand limit DOES NOT equal the right hand limit. Let’s double check:
We could use -0.000001 to represent the left hand limit. This is less than 0. We plug in 5x - 8
5(-0.000001) - 8
-0.000005 - 8
-8.000005
If we would continue the limit (extend the zeros to infinity), we would get exactly
-8
That is our left hand limit.
Our right hand limit will be represented by 0.000001. This is greater than 0. We plug in abs(-4 - x)
abs(-4 - (0.000001))
abs(-4.000001)
4.000001
If we would continue the limit (extend the zeros to infinity), we would get exactly
4
4 does not equal -8, therefore
The limit does not exist
10 / 1 is a rational and which is equal to 10 so 10 is also a rational number
