Rick cuts a 12-foot-long ribbon into 2 pieces. One piece is 3.5 feet longer than the other. What is the length of each piece?

1 answer:

3 0

Its impossible there is no way to solve it because x+3.5= y no number can make 12 if one number is 3.5 ft longer than the other Ignore this i dont feel like erasing this part.

144 in. 42 in. greater than the other 42 + x = y Nvm if you convert the numbers too in. the numbers are 93 + 51 = 144 and if you convert it back it would be

7.75 + 4.25 = 12

an apple is cut into 10 pieces. 0.8 of the apple is eaten. which fraction ,in simplest form ,represents the amount of the apple

nika2105 [10]

The apple is cut into 10 pieces so each piece is 1/10 of the apple. 1/10=.1; .8=8/10 so 8 pieces are eaten. 2 pieces are left which is 2/10 of the apple which simplifies to 1/5 because 2 and 10 are both divisible by 2. 2 divided by itself is 1 and 10 divided by 2 is 5. So the amount of the apple left in simplest form of a fraction is 1/5.

Pls help this is pretty urgent

KIM [24]

Answer:

(a) 0

(b) f(x) = g(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given rational function:

$f(x)=\dfrac{x^2+2x+1}{x^2-1}$

Part (a)

Factor the numerator and denominator of the given rational function:

$\begin{aligned} \implies f(x) & = \dfrac{x^2+2x+1}{x^2-1} \\\\& = \dfrac{(x+1)^2}{(x+1)(x-1)}\\\\& = \dfrac{x+1}{x-1}\end{aligned}$

Substitute x = -1 to find the limit:

$\displaystyle \lim_{x \to -1}f(x)=\dfrac{-1+1}{-1-1}=\dfrac{0}{-2}=0$

Therefore:

$\displaystyle \lim_{x \to -1}f(x)=0$

Part (b)

From part (a), we can see that the simplified function f(x) is the same as the given function g(x). Therefore, f(x) = g(x).

Part (c)

As x = 1 is approached from the right side of 1, the numerator of the function is positive and approaches 2 whilst the denominator of the function is positive and gets smaller and smaller (approaching zero). Therefore, the quotient approaches infinity.

$\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 1^+} f(x)=\dfrac{\to 2^+}{\to 0^+}=\infty$
