Answer: 275 women workers

Step-by-step explanation:

x=men (x+50)=women

x+(x+50)=500

solve for x...

2x+50=500

2x=450

x=225

225+50=275

Let P and Q be polynomials with positive coefficients. Consider the limit below. lim x→[infinity] P(x) Q(x) (a) Find the limit i

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

If the limit that you want to find is $\lim_{x\to \infty}\dfrac{P(x)}{Q(x)}$ then you can use the following proof.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $P(x)=a_{n}x^{n}+a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+\cdots+a_{1}x+a_{0}$ and $Q(x)=b_{m}x^{m}+b_{m-1}x^{n-1}+\cdots+b_{1}x+b_{0}$ be the given polinomials. Then

$\dfrac{P(x)}{Q(x)}=\dfrac{x^{n}(a_{n}+a_{n-1}x^{-1}+a_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots +a_{2}x^{-(n-2)}+a_{1}x^{-(n-1)}+a_{0}x^{-n})}{x^{m}(b_{m}+b_{m-1}x^{-1}+b_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots+b_{2}x^{-(m-2)}+b_{1}x^{-(m-1)}+b_{0}x^{-m})}=x^{n-m}\dfrac{a_{n}+a_{n-1}x^{-1}+a_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots +a_{2}x^{-(n-2)}+a_{1}x^{-(n-1)})+a_{0}x^{-n}}{b_{m}+b_{m-1}x^{-1}+b_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots+b_{2}x^{-(m-2)}+b_{1}x^{-(m-1)}+b_{0}x^{-m}}$

Observe that

$\lim_{x\to \infty}\dfrac{a_{n}+a_{n-1}x^{-1}+a_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots +a_{2}x^{-(n-2)}+a_{1}x^{-(n-1)})+a_{0}x^{-n}}{b_{m}+b_{m-1}x^{-1}+b_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots+b_{2}x^{-(m-2)}+b_{1}x^{-(m-1)}+b_{0}x^{-m}}=\dfrac{a_{n}}{b_{m}}$

and

$\lim_{x\to \infty} x^{n-m}=\begin{cases}0& \text{if}\,\, nm\end{cases}$

Then

$\lim_{x\to \infty}=\lim_{x\to \infty}x^{n-m}\dfrac{a_{n}+a_{n-1}x^{-1}+a_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots +a_{2}x^{-(n-2)}+a_{1}x^{-(n-1)}+a_{0}x^{-n}}{b_{m}+b_{m-1}x^{-1}+b_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots+b_{2}x^{-(m-2)}+b_{1}x^{-(m-1)}+b_{0}x^{-m}}=\begin{cases}0 & \text{if}\,\, nm \end{cases}$
