By analyzing the graph of the function, we will see that:

  • a) DNE
  • b) 3
  • c) -1
  • d) 3
  • e) DNE
  • f) 2

<h3>How to get the limits of the given function?</h3>

Remember that when we take a limit to a given value, we approach to that value by two directions (from above and below) and see at which value the function approaches.

So, for the first limit we have:

x ⇒ -2

As you can see, if we approach from below the function tends to 4, while if we approach from above, the function tends to -1, which means that this limit does not exist. DNE.

x ⇒ 0

The function is continuous here, so the limit is equal to the value of the function in that point, which is 3

x ⇒ 2

If we approach from above and below we get the same number, which is -1, so the limit is equal to -1.

x = 2

Now we are directly evaluating the function in x = 2, and we can see that there is a jump such that f(2) = 3

x ⇒ 4

Here we have two asymptotes, one goes to infinity and the other to negative infinity, so this limit does not exist.

x ⇒ ∞

So we can't see how the function behaves for large values of x, so there is no way to answer this exactly.

If we suppose that the function does not change, we can see that we have a rational function in the right side of the image, so we can expect that as x tends to infinity, the function will tend asymptotically to 2.

Why 2?

Because the denominator becomes zero when x = 4, then when x = 5 the denominator is equal to 1.

At that point, the function is equal to 3, so the function is something like:

y = 1/(x - 4) + 2

The diagram below shows a shaded parallelogram drawn inside a rectangle. Using Pythagoras, find the hypotenuse of triangle A and
Julli [10]

Answer: 5.9 cm for both triangles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, since the situation forms 2 right triangles we have to apply the Pythagorean Theorem:  

c^2 = a^2 + b^2  

Where c is the hypotenuse of a triangle (the longest side of the triangle) and a and b are the other sides.  

Replacing with the values given:  

c^2 = 3^2 + 5^2  

c^2 = 9+25

c^2 = 34

c = √34

c = 5.9 cm

Since both triangles are identical ( same side lengths) the hypotenuse is the same for both, 5.9 cm.

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

The slope of the line below is 2 use the coordinates of the labeled point to find a point slope equation of the line
yan [13]

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is B. The problem says that the slope is 2 and it as the points (3,10) on its line. When looking at the graph, you can see that the line crosses at four on the y-intercept which is why four will be your constant. So, your equation in slope intercept form will become y=2x+4. With this, you can start eliminating the given answers.

You can immediately eliminate c and d because the 2 is negative when it isn't in its slope form. It leaves you with a and b.

When looking at both a and b you now have to look at what your y will become when you sinplify both of them. In choice a, the 2 multiplies with the 3 and gives you 6. Since you have to leave the y by itself you have to subtract 10 from both sides which will leave you with -4. Since your y-intercept isn't negative you know that a isnt the ansewr.

When checking b, you multiply the 2 and -3 to get -6. Since you have to leave the y by itself, you add 10 to each side and end up with 4 which is the same number that crosses the y-axis. and that is how you know it's the right answer.
