Red : Yellow
6 : 8
(÷6) (÷6)
1 : 8/6
1 : 4/3

therefore, R = 4/3Y

Answer: R = 4/3Y

Limitation of -4 to the left of the absolute value of x+4 divided by x+4

timama [110]

I believe you're asking about the one-sided limit,

$\displaystyle \lim_{x\to-4^-}\frac{|x+4|}{x+4}$

Recall the definition of absolute value:

• $|x| = x$ if $x\ge0$

• $|x| = -x$ if $x < 0$

Since we're approaching -4 from the left, we're effectively focusing on a domain of $x$ or $x+4$ . So, by the definition above, we have $|x+4| = -(x+4)$ . Then in the limit, we have

$\displaystyle \lim_{x\to-4^-}\frac{|x+4|}{x+4} = \lim_{x\to-4^-}\frac{-(x+4)}{x+4} = \lim_{x\to-4^-}(-1) = \boxed{-1}$

3x is a ____ of 3x^2 - 6x^3.

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

$\boxed{factor}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Hey there!</em>

3x * x = 3x^2

3x * 2x = 6x^3

So 3x is a factor of 3x^2 - 6x^3.

<em>Hope this helps :)</em>

If R is the midpoint of QS, QR= 8x-51 and RS = 3x-6, find QS.

sashaice [31]

QS would be 42. So the way i did it was I:

8x-51=3x-6

x=9

Plugged into both equations of QR and RS to then get the answer of 42
