Answer from: alishajade

g(x)<j(x)<k(x)<f(x)<m(x)<h(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. $f(x)=\frac{x^2+x-20}{x^2+4}$

The denominator of f is defined for all real values of x

Therefore, the function is continuous on the set of real numbers

$\lim_{x\rightarrow 5}\frac{x^2+x-20}{x^2+4}=\frac{25+5-20}{25+4}=\frac{10}{29}=0.345$

3. $h(x)=\frac{3x-5}{x^2-5x+7}$

x^2-5x+7=0

It cannot be factorize .

Therefore, it has no real values for which it is not defined .

Hence, function h is defined for all real values.

$\lim_{x\rightarrow 5}\frac{3x-5}{x^2-5x+7}=\frac{15-5}{25-25+7}=\frac{10}{7}=1.43$

2. $g(x)=\frac{x-17}{x^2+75}$

The denominator of g is defined for all real values of x.

Therefore, the function g is continuous on the set of real numbers

$\lim_{x\rightarrow 5}\frac{x-17}{x^2+75}=\frac{5-17}{25+75}=\frac{-12}{100}=-0.12$

4. $i(x)=\frac{x^2-9}{x-9}$

x-9=0

x=9

The function i is not defined for x=9

Therefore, the function i is not continuous on the set of real numbers.

5. $j(x)=\frac{4x^2-7x-65}{x^2+10}$

The denominator of j is defined for all real values of x.

Therefore, the function j is continuous on the set of real numbers.

$\lim_{x\rightarrow 5}\frac{4x^2-7x-65}{x^2+10}=\frac{100-35-65}{25+10}=0$

6. $k(x)=\frac{x+1}{x^2+x+29}$

x^2+x+29=0

It cannot be factorize .

Therefore, it has no real values for which it is not defined .

Hence, function k is defined for all real values.

$\lim_{x\rightarrow 5}\frac{x+1}{x^2+x+29}=\frac{5+1}{25+5+29}=\frac{6}{59}=0.102$

7. $l(x)=\frac{5x-1}{x^2-9x+8}$

x^2-9x+8=0

x^2-8x-x+8=0

x(x-8)-1(x-8)=0

(x-8)(x-1)=0

x=8,1

The function is not defined for x=8 and x=1

Hence, function l is not defined for all real values.

8. $m(x)=\frac{x^2+5x-24}{x^2+11}$

The denominator of m is defined for all real values of x.

Therefore, the function m is continuous on the set of real numbers.

$\lim_{x\rightarrow 5}\frac{x^2+5x-24}{x^2+11}=\frac{25+25-24}{25+11}=\frac{26}{36}=\frac{13}{18}=0.722$

g(x)<j(x)<k(x)<f(x)<m(x)<h(x)

Answer from: Quest

x = ± 6i

step-by-step explanation:

x^2 = -36

take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(-36)

we know sqrt(ab) = sqrt(a) sqrt(b)

x = ±sqrt(36) sqrt(-1)

we know that sqrt (-1) = i

x = ± 6i

Answer from: Quest

the largest number of the four options is 1.8 x 10-2

you have it in scientific notation.

1.80 x 10-6 = 0.00000180

1.80 x 10-4 = 0.000180 (bigger, or "less small", than the former one)

1.8 x 10-2 = 0.0180. as you see. the "less small", or the biggest one of them all.

as you have negative exponent, it means you are dividing 1.8 by 100 (i.e. moving the dot towards left, two times).

if you had positive exponent for the scientific notation, power of tenths, you would be multiplying times 100 (moving the dot towards right) as below:

1.8 x (10)2 = 180

so. if you have negative exponent in scientific notation, move the dot toward left. if it is positive, toward right as many times the exponent tells you.
