Answer: [tex]-\frac{\sqrt{2a}}{8a}[/tex]
=======================================================
Explanation:
The (x-a) in the denominator causes a problem if we tried to simply directly substitute in x = a. This is because we get a division by zero error.
The trick often used for problems like this is to rationalize the numerator as shown in the steps below.
[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to a} \frac{\sqrt{3a-x}-\sqrt{x+a}}{4(x-a)}\\\\\\\lim_{x\to a} \frac{(\sqrt{3a-x}-\sqrt{x+a})(\sqrt{3a-x}+\sqrt{x+a})}{4(x-a)(\sqrt{3a-x}+\sqrt{x+a})}\\\\\\\lim_{x\to a} \frac{(\sqrt{3a-x})^2-(\sqrt{x+a})^2}{4(x-a)(\sqrt{3a-x}+\sqrt{x+a})}\\\\\\\lim_{x\to a} \frac{3a-x-(x+a)}{4(x-a)(\sqrt{3a-x}+\sqrt{x+a})}\\\\\\\lim_{x\to a} \frac{3a-x-x-a}{4(x-a)(\sqrt{3a-x}+\sqrt{x+a})}\\\\\\[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to a} \frac{2a-2x}{4(x-a)(\sqrt{3a-x}+\sqrt{x+a})}\\\\\\\lim_{x\to a} \frac{-2(-a+x)}{4(x-a)(\sqrt{3a-x}+\sqrt{x+a})}\\\\\\\lim_{x\to a} \frac{-2(x-a)}{4(x-a)(\sqrt{3a-x}+\sqrt{x+a})}\\\\\\\lim_{x\to a} \frac{-2}{4(\sqrt{3a-x}+\sqrt{x+a})}\\\\\\[/tex]
At this point, the (x-a) in the denominator has been canceled out. We can now plug in x = a to see what happens
[tex]\displaystyle L = \lim_{x\to a} \frac{-2}{4(\sqrt{3a-x}+\sqrt{x+a})}\\\\\\L = \frac{-2}{4(\sqrt{3a-a}+\sqrt{a+a})}\\\\\\L = \frac{-2}{4(\sqrt{2a}+\sqrt{2a})}\\\\\\L = \frac{-2}{4(2\sqrt{2a})}\\\\\\L = \frac{-2}{8\sqrt{2a}}\\\\\\L = \frac{-1}{4\sqrt{2a}}\\\\\\L = \frac{-1*\sqrt{2a}}{4\sqrt{2a}*\sqrt{2a}}\\\\\\L = \frac{-\sqrt{2a}}{4\sqrt{2a*2a}}\\\\\\L = \frac{-\sqrt{2a}}{4\sqrt{(2a)^2}}\\\\\\L = \frac{-\sqrt{2a}}{4*2a}\\\\\\L = -\frac{\sqrt{2a}}{8a}\\\\\\[/tex]
There's not much else to say from here since we don't know the value of 'a'. So we can stop here.
Therefore,
[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to a} \frac{\sqrt{3a-x}-\sqrt{x+a}}{4(x-a)} = -\frac{\sqrt{2a}}{8a}\\\\\\[/tex]

Complete the square to evaluate the definite integral

Answers
[tex]\displaystyle \int_1^3 \frac{\mathrm dx}{x^2-2x+5}[/tex]
Follow the instruction and complete the square in the denominator:
x ² - 2x + 5 = (x ² - 2x + 1) + 4 = (x - 1)² + 4
Then the integral is
[tex]\displaystyle \int_{x=1}^{x=3} \frac{\mathrm dx}{(x-1)^2+4}[/tex]
Substitute y = x - 1 and dy = dx :
[tex]\displaystyle \int_{y+1=1}^{y+1=3} \frac{\mathrm dy}{y^2+4} = \int_{y=0}^{y=2}\frac{\mathrm dy}{y^2+4}[/tex]
Substitute y = 2 tan(z) and dy = 2 sec²(z) dz :
[tex]\displaystyle \int_{2\tan(z)=0}^{2\tan(z)=2}\frac{2\sec^2(z)}{(2\tan(z))^2+4}\,\mathrm dz = \frac12 \int_{z=0}^{z=\pi/4} \frac{\sec^2(z)}{\tan^2(z)+1}\,\mathrm dz \\\\ = \frac12 \int_{z=0}^{z=\pi/4} \frac{\sec^2(z)}{\sec^2(z)}\,\mathrm dz \\\\ = \frac12 \int_{z=0}^{z=\pi/4} \mathrm dz = \frac12 z\bigg|_{z=0}^{z=\pi/4} = \frac12 \left(\frac\pi4-0\right) = \boxed{\frac\pi8}[/tex]

The length of a rectangle is 5 yd longer than its width.
If the perimeter of the rectangle is 62 yd, find its length and width.
Answers
Answer:
w = 13yd, l = 18yd
Step-by-step explanation:
let x be width, so x+5 = length
Perimeter is sum of all 4 sides, and since opposite sides equal in rectangle,
P = 2(l+w)
= 2(x+5 +x)
= 4x + 10
Since perimeter is give as 62yd, equation is
4x + 10 = 62
4x = 52
x = 13

Answer:
A, C, and F
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution is, A and D are the correct statements.
What is division?Division is the process of splitting a number or an amount into equal parts. Division is one of the four basic operations of arithmetic, the ways that numbers are combined to make new numbers. The other operations are addition, subtraction, and multiplication.
here, we have,
to know which are the following statements are true:
We know that when f(x) is divided by (x - h) then f(h) is the remainder.
In option A f(-7) is the remainder which gives the value 8.
So, option A is correct.
Here the value x = 7 does not satisfy the function.
When we put x = 7 in the function it is coming 99
So, option B and C are wrong.
On putting x = -7 in the function we are getting 8
So options D is correct
Again, the value of f(7) is 99.
So, (x - 7) when divides the given function, 8 is not the remainder.
So, option E is wrong.
Hence, The solution is, A and D are the correct statements.
