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.

Answer:
<em>Terry had £780 initially and Faye had £1300</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>System of Equations</u>
We'll call the following variables:
x = Terry's balance in his bank account
y = Faye's balance in her bank account
The initial relation between them is:
Cross-multiplying:
5x = 3y [1]
If Terry put £220 in his account he had x+220 and if Faye withdrew £300 from her account, she had y-300. Both quantities are equal, thus
x + 220 = y - 300
Subtracting 220:
x = y - 520 [2]
Substituting in [1]
5(y - 520) = 3y
Multiplying:
5y - 2600 = 3y
Adding 2600 and subtracting 3y:
2y = 2600
Dividing by 2:
y = 1300
From [2]:
x = 1300 - 520
x = 780
Terry had £780 initially and Faye had £1300
Answer:
37
Step-by-step explanation:
Add all the numbers up and you will get 370. How many numbers are there in total? 10 right so you divide 370 with 10 and get 37.
hope this help
