1. Do inverse operation
-128 = 8x
8 8
-16 = x
2. Substitute (Optional)
-128 = 8(-16)
-128 = -128
Answer:
When we have a function like:

This function will have a discontinuity only if it diverges, and a divergence can happen when the denominator is equal to zero and the numerator is different than zero.
In this case, we have the equation:

Here the denominator is:
h(x) = x + 2
This is equal to zero when:
x + 2 = 0
x = -2
Now we need to see what happens with the numerator when x = -2
g(-2) = (-2)^2 + 2*(-2) = 0
Is equal to zero.
Then we need to see the limit when x -> -2, and use the L'Hopital theorem.

Because we have zero over zero at that point, we need to look at the quotients of the derivatives of both numerator and denominator.

Then the function does not diverge, then the function has no discontinuity.
We also could look at the graph of f(x) to see it:
Our function is a linear function, and this is because the numerator is x times the denominator, then the function is:
f(x) = x.
Step-by-step explanation:
Bringing like terms on one side
2 + 7 - 5 = 2x - 4x
9 - 5 = - 2x
4 = - 2x
4/ - 2 = x
- 2 = x
Answer:
The ship is located at (3,5)
Explanation:
In the first test, the equation of the position was:
5x² - y² = 20 ...........> equation I
In the second test, the equation of the position was:
y² - 2x² = 7 ..............> equation II
This equation can be rewritten as:
y² = 2x² + 7 ............> equation III
Since the ship did not move in the duration between the two tests, therefore, the position of the ship is the same in the two tests which means that:
equation I = equation II
To get the position of the ship, we will simply need to solve equation I and equation II simultaneously and get their solution.
Substitute with equation III in equation I to solve for x as follows:
5x²-y² = 20
5x² - (2x²+7) = 20
5x² - 2y² - 7 = 20
3x² = 27
x² = 9
x = <span>± </span>√9
We are given that the ship lies in the first quadrant. This means that both its x and y coordinates are positive. This means that:
x = √9 = 3
Substitute with x in equation III to get y as follows:
y² = 2x² + 7
y² = 2(3)² + 7
y = 18 + 7
y = 25
y = +√25
y = 5
Based on the above, the position of the ship is (3,5).
Hope this helps :)
The answers would be A,B,D, and F!
