What is the equation of the line that contains the points<br> (-5,0) and (0,6) ?

Rosa throws a ball. The equation d = −t^2 + 4t + 5 represents the path taken by Rosa's ball where d is the height of the ball (i

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

-t²+4t+5=0

t²-4t-5=0

t²-5t+t-5=0

t(t-5)+1(t-5)=0

(t-5)(t+1)=0

t=5,-1

when t=0,d=5

actual time it it is in air=5-1=4 seconds.

Calculus piecewise function.

Kipish [7]

Part A

The notation $\lim_{x \to 2^{+}}f(x)$ means that we're approaching x = 2 from the right hand side (aka positive side). This is known as a right hand limit.

So we could start at say x = 2.5 and get closer to 2 by getting to x = 2.4 then to x = 2.3 then 2.2, 2.1, 2.01, 2.001, etc

We don't actually arrive at x = 2 itself. We simply move closer and closer.

Since we're on the positive or right hand side of 2, this means we go with the rule involving x > 2

Therefore f(x) = (x/2) + 1

Plug in x = 2 to find that...

f(x) = (x/2) + 1

f(2) = (2/2) + 1

f(2) = 2

This shows $\lim_{x \to 2^{+}}f(x) = 2$

Then for the left hand limit $\lim_{x \to 2^{-}}f(x)$ , we'll involve x < 2 and we go for the first piece. So,

f(x) = 3-x

f(2) = 3-2

f(2) = 1

Therefore, $\lim_{x \to 2^{-}}f(x) = 1$

===============================================================

Part B

Because $\lim_{x \to 2^{+}}f(x) \ne \lim_{x \to 2^{-}}f(x)$ this means that the limit $\lim_{x \to 2}f(x)$ does not exist.

If you are a visual learner, check out the graph below of the piecewise function. Notice the gap or disconnect at x = 2. This can be thought of as two roads that are disconnected. There's no way for a car to go from one road to the other. Because of this disconnect, the limit doesn't exist at x = 2.

===============================================================

Part C

You'll follow the same type of steps shown in part A.

However, keep in mind that x = 4 is above x = 2, so we'll deal with x > 2 only.

So you'd only involve the second piece f(x) = (x/2) + 1

You should find that f(4) = 3, and that both left and right hand limits equal this value. The left and right hand limits approach the same y value. The limit does exist here. There are no gaps to worry about when x = 4.

===============================================================

Part D

As mentioned earlier, since $\lim_{x \to 4^{+}}f(x) = \lim_{x \to 4^{-}}f(x) = 3$ , this means the limit $\lim_{x \to 4}f(x)$ does exist and it's equal to 3.
