UkoKoshka [18]

The answer is 2

Step-by-step explanation: 100% is the highest score you can have . then you have to divide 25 by 100 because 25 is the total amount of questions ,you should get 4,wich means each question is worth 4 points.

18 correct is a score of 72

20 correct is a score of 80

4x2=8 wich you need 8 more to get to 80 from 72

Find the indicated limit, if it exists.

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

d) The limit does not exist

General Formulas and Concepts:

Calculus

Limits

Right-Side Limit: $\displaystyle \lim_{x \to c^+} f(x)$
Left-Side Limit: $\displaystyle \lim_{x \to c^-} f(x)$

Limit Rule [Variable Direct Substitution]: $\displaystyle \lim_{x \to c} x = c$

Limit Property [Addition/Subtraction]: $\displaystyle \lim_{x \to c} [f(x) \pm g(x)] = \lim_{x \to c} f(x) \pm \lim_{x \to c} g(x)$

Step-by-step explanation:

*Note:

In order for a limit to exist, the right-side and left-side limits must equal each other.

Step 1: Define

Identify

$\displaystyle f(x) = \left\{\begin{array}{ccc}5 - x,\ x < 5\\8,\ x = 5\\x + 3,\ x > 5\end{array}$

Step 2: Find Right-Side Limit

Substitute in function [Limit]: $\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 5^+} 5 - x$
Evaluate limit [Limit Rule - Variable Direct Substitution]: $\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 5^+} 5 - x = 5 - 5 = 0$

Step 3: Find Left-Side Limit

Substitute in function [Limit]: $\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 5^-} x + 3$
Evaluate limit [Limit Rule - Variable Direct Substitution]: $\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 5^+} x + 3 = 5 + 3 = 8$

∴ Since $\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 5^+} f(x) \neq \lim_{x \to 5^-} f(x)$ , then $\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 5} f(x) = DNE$

A rocket is 1 mile above the earth in 30 seconds and 5 miles above the earth in 2.5 minutes. What is the rockets rate of change

tamaranim1 [39]

The rockets rate of change in miles per second is: (5 - 1)/(2.5*60 - 30) = 1/30 miler per second or 0.033 the rockets rate of change in miles per minute is: (5 - 1)/(2.5 - 30/60) = 2 miles per minute

Which side will require the use of the distance formula to find the length?

Bad White [126]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For all sides except CD, you do not need the distance formula, since they are vertical or horizontal, meaning that you can find their length simply through subtraction. However, with side CD, since it is diagonal, you need to form a right triangle with to solve its length. Hope this helps!
