Answer:
Yes it can be simplified.
Answer:
The limit of the function does not exists.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the graph it is noticed that the value of the function is 6 from all values of x which are less than 2. At x=2, the line y=6 has open circle. It means x=2 is not included.
For x<2

The value of the function is -3 from all values of x which are greater than 2. At x=2, the line y=-3 has open circle. It means x=2 is not included.
For x>2

The value of y is 1 at x=2, because of he close circles on (2,1).
For x=2

Therefore the graph represents a piecewise function, which is defined as

The limit of a function exist at a point a if the left hand limit and right hand limit are equal.

The function is broken at x=2, therefore we have to find the left and right hand limit at x=2.



Since the left hand limit and right hand limit are not equal therefore the limit of the function does not exists.
Answer:
a = 30
b = 40
C
Step-by-step explanation:
This requires that you use a proportion.
a / (a + 15) = 40 / 60
The small triangle's sides are in proportion to the large triangles sides.
Reduce the right. Divide top and bottom by 20
a/(a + 15) = 40/20 // 60/20
a/(a + 15) = 2/3
Cross multiply
3a = 2(a + 15) Remove the brackets on the right.
3a = 2a + 30
Subtract 2a from both sides
3a-2a = 30
a = 30
Find B
b is done exactly the same way.
b/(b+20) = 2/3
3b = 2b + 40
3b - 2b = 40
b = 40
Answer:
The area of DBE = 27 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of ABC = 3 square units
In the figure, we can see that ABC was enlarged so that BDE is formed where side BD = 6 and AB was = 2
Hence ABC was enlarged 3 times its size.
We know by formula that:
Area of ABC = 1/2(base x perpendicular)
3 = 1/2(2 x p)
=> p = 3
As ABC was enlarged 3 times its size, the perpendicular of BDE must be 3*p
= 3*3 = 9
AREA OF DBE = 1/2(base*perp)
= 1/2(6*9)
= 27 square units
