For a function to be continuous at an x-value of -3 you need to make sure two things line up:

First, we need to show that the limit from the left equals the limit from the right.

     \lim_{x \to -3^{-}} f(x) =  \lim_{x \to -3^{+}} f(x)

Second, we need to show that this limit equals the functions value.

    \lim_{x \to -3} f(x) = f(-3)

The left hand limit involves the first piece, f(x) = x^2 - 9:

    \begin{aligned} \lim_{x \to -3^{-}} f(x) &=  \lim_{x \to -3^{-}} (x^2-9)\\[0.5em]&=   (-3)^2-9\\[0.5em]&=   0\endaligned}

The right hand limit invovles the second piece, f(x) = 0:

    \begin{aligned} \lim_{x \to -3^{+}} f(x) &=  \lim_{x \to -3^{+}} (0)\\[0.5em]&=   0\endaligned}

Since the two one-sided limits do match, we can just say:

    \lim_{x \to -3} f(x)  = 0  

(no one-sided pieces needed now)

So that was step #1, to make sure the limit exists.  Next we need to make sure the limit is headed to the same place where the functions.  Since we're using x=-3, we'll use the top piece of the function because x=-3 fits with that piece ( x ≤ -3 ).

    f(-3) = (-3)^2-9 = 0

From this, we know that \lim_{x \to -3} f(x)  = f(-3), so the function is continuous at -3.  (We also know parabolas and lines are continuous in general, so we only needed to check where the two pieces came together at x = -3.)

How many times as great is the diameter of a pinhead as the diameter of a cloud-water droplet
Ulleksa [173]

Given:

The diameter of cloud-water droplet is

10^{-5}

The diameter of pinhead is 0.001.

Explanation:

Divide the dimater of cloud-water droplet by dimater of pinhead to determine the times as great is the diameter of a pinhead as the diameter of a cloud-water droplet .

\begin{gathered} a=\frac{0.001}{10^{-5}} \\ =0.001\cdot10^5 \\ =100 \end{gathered}

So diameter of a pin-head is 100 times the diameter of water-droplet.

Principal = $47,300 Rate = 3% Time = 4 months What will the total payment plus interest be?
motikmotik

Answer:

Simple Interest (I) =  Principle * Rate * Time

 

so I = PRT

 

P = $47300

R = 3% = 0.03

T = 4months = 0.33years

 

so

Assuming its per year after 4month

 

I = (47300)(0.03)(0.333333)

 

I = 472.999527

 

I = $473

 

Now we'd add the interest(I) to the Principle

 

$47300 + $473 = $47773.00

 

 

Assuming it is per month, after 4months

 

I = PRT

 

I = (47300)(0.03)(4)

 

I = $5676.00

 

Now add the interest to the principle

 

$47300 + $5676 = $52976.00

Determine the solution of the system. Show your work
Oxana [17]
First question:

1. Set equations equal to each other so 5x-9=2x+6
2. Put x's on one side so that 3x=15
3. Divide by 3 so that x=15
4. Substitute 15 in for x so that y=2(15)+6
5. Solve for y so that y=36
6. Thus the equations intersect at (15,36)

Second question:

1. Since for lines y=mx+b, and m=slope=3 you only need to write an equation with slope 3
2. y=3x+b, b can be any number
