8+2k=4k+4
8-4=4k-2k I placed the like terms on each side.
4=2k Simplify
4/2=k Leave the variable a side
2 = k

Step 1. Subtract 2k from both sides
8 = 4k + 4 - 2k
Step 2. Simplify 4k + 4 - 2k to 2k + 4
8 = 2k + 4
Step 3. Subtract 4 from both sides
8 - 4 = 2k
Step 4. Simplify 8 - 4 to 4
4 = 2k
Step 5. Divide both sides by 2
4/2 = k
Step 6. Simplify 4/2 to 2
2 = k
Step 7. Switch sides
Your answer is k = 2

Answer:

D. 13

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 5

2 x 5 + 3 = 13

5 + 8 = 13

meaning the side length has to be 13, also.

Lim (n/3n-1)^(n-1) n → ∞

n200080 [17]

Looks like the given limit is

$\displaystyle \lim_{n\to\infty} \left(\frac n{3n-1}\right)^{n-1}$

With some simple algebra, we can rewrite

$\dfrac n{3n-1} = \dfrac13 \cdot \dfrac n{n-9} = \dfrac13 \cdot \dfrac{(n-9)+9}{n-9} = \dfrac13 \cdot \left(1 + \dfrac9{n-9}\right)$

then distribute the limit over the product,

$\displaystyle \lim_{n\to\infty} \left(\frac n{3n-1}\right)^{n-1} = \lim_{n\to\infty}\left(\dfrac13\right)^{n-1} \cdot \lim_{n\to\infty}\left(1+\dfrac9{n-9}\right)^{n-1}$

The first limit is 0, since 1/3ⁿ is a positive, decreasing sequence. But before claiming the overall limit is also 0, we need to show that the second limit is also finite.

For the second limit, recall the definition of the constant, e :

$\displaystyle e = \lim_{n\to\infty} \left(1+\frac1n\right)^n$

To make our limit resemble this one more closely, make a substitution; replace 9/(n - 9) with 1/m, so that

$\dfrac{9}{n-9} = \dfrac1m \implies 9m = n-9 \implies 9m+8 = n-1$

From the relation 9m = n - 9, we see that m also approaches infinity as n approaches infinity. So, the second limit is rewritten as

$\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}\left(1+\dfrac9{n-9}\right)^{n-1} = \lim_{m\to\infty}\left(1+\dfrac1m\right)^{9m+8}$

Now we apply some more properties of multiplication and limits:

$\displaystyle \lim_{m\to\infty}\left(1+\dfrac1m\right)^{9m+8} = \lim_{m\to\infty}\left(1+\dfrac1m\right)^{9m} \cdot \lim_{m\to\infty}\left(1+\dfrac1m\right)^8 \\\\ = \lim_{m\to\infty}\left(\left(1+\dfrac1m\right)^m\right)^9 \cdot \left(\lim_{m\to\infty}\left(1+\dfrac1m\right)\right)^8 \\\\ = \left(\lim_{m\to\infty}\left(1+\dfrac1m\right)^m\right)^9 \cdot \left(\lim_{m\to\infty}\left(1+\dfrac1m\right)\right)^8 \\\\ = e^9 \cdot 1^8 = e^9$

So, the overall limit is indeed 0:

$\displaystyle \lim_{n\to\infty} \left(\frac n{3n-1}\right)^{n-1} = \underbrace{\lim_{n\to\infty}\left(\dfrac13\right)^{n-1}}_0 \cdot \underbrace{\lim_{n\to\infty}\left(1+\dfrac9{n-9}\right)^{n-1}}_{e^9} = \boxed{0}$
