Answer: Option 'E' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

If the length of one piece of rope is 2.8 meters shorter than the length of the other.

Let the length of first piece be 'x'.

Let the length of second piece be 'x-2.8'

Total length of rope = 20.6

So, According to question, it becomes,

x+x-2.8=20.6\\\\2x=20.6+2.8\\\\2x=23.4\\\\x=\dfrac{23.4}{2}\\\\x=11.7

So, the greatest number of the length of part of rope is 11.7 m.

Hence, Option 'E' is correct.

A race car is driven by a professional driver at 99 . What is this speed in and ? 1 mile = 1.61 kilometers 1 hour = 60 minutes E
Lena [83]

Let us assume that the given speed is in miles per hour.

A race car is driven by a professional driver at 99 mph.

We have to find the speed in kilometer per hour and kilometer per minutes

As 1 mile = 1.61 km

So, 99 miles = 99\times1.61=159.39 kmph

1 km per hour = 0.0166 km per minute

So, 159.39 kmph = 159.39\times0.0166=2.6458 km per minute

Hence, The speed is equivalent to 159.39 kilometers /hour, or 2.645 kilometers/minutes .

Question 1(Multiple Choice Worth 2 points)
earnstyle [38]
These are 3 questions and 3 answers.

1) Find


\lim_{x \to \ 2^+} f(x)

Answer: 4.

Explanation:

The expression means the limit as the function f(x) approaches 2 from the right.

Then, you have to use the function (the line) that comes from the right of 2 and gets as close as you want to x = 2.

That is the line that has the open circle around y = 4, and that is the limit searched.

2) Use the graph to determine the limit if it exists.

Answer:

\lim_{x \to \ 2^-} f(x) = 3

\lim_{x \to \ 2^+} f(x)=-3

To determine each limit you use the function from the side the value of x is being approached.

Note, that since the two limits are different it is said that the limit of the function as it approaches 2 does not exist.

3) 
Answer: - 1


\lim_{x \to \ 3^-} f(x) = -1

To find the limit when the function is approached to 3 from the left you follow the line that ends with the open circle at (3, -1).

Therefore, the limit is - 1.

Find ST if S(-3,10) and T(-2,3)
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

ST = 7.07 units

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to find the length of a segment

- The length of a segment whose endpoints are (x_{1},y_{1})

  and (x_{2},y_{2}) can be founded by the rule of the distance

  d=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}

* Lets solve the problem

∵ The line segment is ST

∵ S is (-3 , 10)

∵ T is (-2 , 3)

- Assume that S is (x_{1},y_{1}) and T is (x_{2},y_{2})

∴ x_{1}=-3 and x_{2}=-2

∴ y_{1}=10 and y_{2}=3

- By using the rule above

∴ ST=\sqrt{(-2--3)^{2}+(3-10)^{2}}

∴ ST=\sqrt{(1)^{2}+(-7)^{2}}

∴ ST=\sqrt{1+49}

∴ ST=\sqrt{50}

∴ ST = 7.07 units
