Answer:

12 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Sally has  pet snail that fell into a well.

Depth of the well = 16 feet

Snail climbs up 5 feet but each night it slides back down 4 feet.

So the snail climbs up per day = 5 feet - 4 feet = 1 feet.

Number of days snail took to reach at 11 feet = 11 × 1 = 11 feet

Remaining distance to cover by the snail = 16 - 11 = 5 feet

Number of days to cover remaining 5 feet to reach the top of the well = 1 day

Therefore, snail will take 12 days to reach the top of the well.

Find the value of k such that lim-->4 (x^2+x-k)/(x-4) exists
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

k=20

Step-by-step explanation:

when x approaches 4, the denominator x-4 approaches 0

if the denominator is 0, it means that this is invalid

if the function is a number over 0 when x=4, it represents a vertical asymptote, which means no limit

so the only way possible to let there be a limit is to let the function be 0/0 when we plug in x=4

so x^2 + x - k = 0 when x = 4

4^2 + 4 - k = 0 ==> 20 - k = 0 ==> k = 20

I need help is it A B C or D
harina [27]
We evaluate b^2 - 4ac.  If the answer is positive, then there are two real solutions.  If it is zero, there is one real solution.  If it is negative, there are 2 complex solutions.  In this equation, a = 1, b = 5, c = 7.  Now we plug in the numbers.

5^{2}-4*1*7=1

Because this answer is positive, there are two real solutions.
