Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation of line: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁), where m is the slope and (x₁, y₁) is the point the line passing through.

y=m₁x+b₁ ║ y=m₂x+b₂ ⇔ m₁ = m₂

{Two lines are parallel if their slopes are equal}

y = 2/3x + 1 ⇒ m₁ = 2/3 ⇒ m₂ = 2/3

(-5, -2) ⇒ x₁ = -5, y₁ = -2

point-slope form:

y - (-2) = 2/3(x - (-5))

y + 2 = 2/3(x + 5)

y + 2 = 2/3x + 10/3 {subtact 2 from both sides}

y = 2/3x + 4/3 ← slope-intercept form

Answer:

y = ²/₃x + ⁴/₃

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation of line: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁), where m is the slope and (x₁, y₁) is the point the line passing through.

y=m₁x+b₁ ║ y=m₂x+b₂ ⇔ m₁ = m₂

{Two lines are parallel if their slopes are equal}

y = 2/3x + 1 ⇒ m₁ = 2/3 ⇒ m₂ = 2/3

(-5, -2) ⇒ x₁ = -5, y₁ = -2

point-slope form:

y - (-2) = 2/3(x - (-5))

y + 2 = 2/3(x + 5)

y + 2 = 2/3x + 10/3 {subtact 2 from both sides}

y = 2/3x + 4/3 ← slope-intercept form

I will do my best to explain this “ x method “ I use
Basically, two factors of the first and last number must multiply together to sum up to equal the middle number
1 X 12
1 4
(x+12) (x+4)
Hope this helps!

QUESTION 1

If a function is continuous at $x=a$ , then $\lim_{x \to a}f(x)=f(a)$

Let us find the limit first,

$\lim_{x \to 4} \frac{x-4}{x+5}$

As $x \rightarrow 4$ , $x-4 \rightarrow 0$ , $x+5 \rightarrow 9$ and $f(x) \rightarrow \frac{0}{9}=0$

$\therefore \lim_{x \to 4} \frac{x-4}{x+5}=0$

Let us now find the functional value at $x=4$

$f(4)=\frac{4-4}{4+5} =\frac{0}{9}=0$

Since

$\lim_{x \to 4} f(x)=\frac{x-4}{x+5}=f(4)$ , the function is continuous at $a=4$ .

QUESTION 2

The correct answer is table 2. See attachment.

In this table the values of x approaches zero from both sides.

This can help us determine if the one sided limits are approaching the same value.

As we are getting closer and closer to zero from both sides, the function is approaching 2.

The values are also very close to zero unlike those in table 4.

The correct answer is B

QUESTION 3

We want to evaluate;

$\lim_{x \to 1} \frac{x^3+5x^2+3x-9}{x-1}$

using the properties of limits.

A direct evaluation gives $\frac{1^3+5(1)^2+3(1)-9}{1-1}=\frac{0}{0}$ .

This indeterminate form suggests that, we simplify the function first.

We factor to obtain,

$\lim_{x \to 1} \frac{(x-1)(x+3)^2}{x-1}$

We cancel common factors to get,

$\lim_{x \to 1} (x+3)^2$

$=(1+3)^2=16$

The correct answer is D

QUESTION 4

We can see from the table that as x approaches $-2$ from both sides, the function approaches $-4$

Hence the limit is $-4$ .

See attachment

The correct answer is option A
