Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the age of son be x

x+x+20=40

2x=40-20

x=20/2

x=10

since age of a father is 20 more than his son's so,

x+20=father's age

10+20

therefore fathers age is thirty years and son age is 10 years

Answer:

20 is the father's 20 is the son

Step-by-step explanation:

20+20=40

40/2=20

40-20=20

another way:

20:n= 40

40-20=20

20:20=40

Find the limit

Lana71 [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Appropriate Question :-</h3>

Find the limit

$\rm \: \sf {\displaystyle{\lim_{x\to 1}}} \: \left[\dfrac{x-2}{x^2-x}-\dfrac{1}{x^3-3x^2+2x}\right]$

$\large\underline{\sf{Solution-}}$

Given expression is

$\rm \: \sf {\displaystyle{\lim_{x\to 1}}} \: \left[\dfrac{x-2}{x^2-x}-\dfrac{1}{x^3-3x^2+2x}\right]$

On substituting directly x = 1, we get,

$\rm \: = \: \sf \dfrac{1-2}{1 - 1}-\dfrac{1}{1 - 3 + 2}$

$\rm \: = \sf \: \: - \infty \: - \: \infty$

which is indeterminant form.

Consider again,

$\rm \: \sf {\displaystyle{\lim_{x\to 1}}} \: \left[\dfrac{x-2}{x^2-x}-\dfrac{1}{x^3-3x^2+2x}\right]$

can be rewritten as

$\rm \: \sf {\displaystyle{\lim_{x\to 1}}} \: \left[\dfrac{x-2}{x(x - 1)}-\dfrac{1}{x( {x}^{2} - 3x + 2)}\right]$

$\rm \: = \: \sf {\displaystyle{\lim_{x\to 1}}} \: \left[\dfrac{x-2}{x(x - 1)}-\dfrac{1}{x( {x}^{2} - 2x - x + 2)}\right]$

$\rm \: = \: \sf {\displaystyle{\lim_{x\to 1}}} \: \left[\dfrac{x-2}{x(x - 1)}-\dfrac{1}{x( x(x - 2) - 1(x - 2))}\right]$

$\rm \: = \: \sf {\displaystyle{\lim_{x\to 1}}} \: \left[\dfrac{x-2}{x(x - 1)}-\dfrac{1}{x(x - 2) \: (x - 1))}\right]$

$\rm \: = \: \sf {\displaystyle{\lim_{x\to 1}}} \: \left[\dfrac{ {(x - 2)}^{2} - 1}{x(x - 2) \: (x - 1))}\right]$

$\rm \: = \: \sf {\displaystyle{\lim_{x\to 1}}} \: \left[\dfrac{ (x - 2 - 1)(x - 2 + 1)}{x(x - 2) \: (x - 1))}\right]$

$\rm \: = \: \sf {\displaystyle{\lim_{x\to 1}}} \: \left[\dfrac{ (x - 3)(x - 1)}{x(x - 2) \: (x - 1))}\right]$

$\rm \: = \: \sf {\displaystyle{\lim_{x\to 1}}} \: \left[\dfrac{ (x - 3)}{x(x - 2)}\right]$

$\rm \: = \: \sf \: \dfrac{1 - 3}{1 \times (1 - 2)}$

$\rm \: = \: \sf \: \dfrac{ - 2}{ - 1}$

$\rm \: = \: \sf \boxed{2}$

Hence,

$\rm\implies \:\boxed{ \rm{ \:\rm \: \sf {\displaystyle{\lim_{x\to 1}}} \: \left[\dfrac{x-2}{x^2-x}-\dfrac{1}{x^3-3x^2+2x}\right] = 2 \: }}$
