Answer:
Option a.
Step-by-step explanation:
You have the following limit:
The method of direct substitution consists of substituting the value of in the function and simplifying the expression obtained.
We then use this method to solve the limit by doing
Therefore:
By definition, any number raised to exponent 0 is equal to 1
So
Finally
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of the box = x³ +11x² + 20x – 32 I think the ' is a typo for ³
the width is x-1 and the height is x+8
Find an expression for the length
Vol = LWH solve L
Vol / (WH) = L so
L = (x³ +11x² + 20x – 32) / (x-1) (x+8)
so it would help to factor the numerator
(x³ +11x² + 20x – 32) I'm willing to bet (x-1) and (x+8) are factors
but I will plot the equation to find the three roots
(x³ +11x² + 20x – 32) = (x-1) (x+8) (x+4)
L = (x³ +11x² + 20x – 32) / (x-1) (x+8)
= (x-1) (x+8) (x+4) / (x-1) (x+8) the (x-1) and (x+8) cancel out leaving
L = (x + 4)
