Math Problem Statement

Use the graph of F to find the limit as x approaches 5 from the right-hand side (x → 5^+). State the limit or indicate if it does not exist.

Solution

To solve the given problem, let us analyze the provided graph of F(x)F(x) and focus on the behavior of F(x)F(x) as x5+x \to 5^+ (from the right-hand side of x=5x = 5).

  1. From the graph:

    • Locate x=5x = 5 on the x-axis.
    • Observe the function's behavior as xx approaches 55 from values slightly greater than 55 (i.e., x>5x > 5).
  2. The y-value that the function approaches as x5+x \to 5^+ determines the right-hand limit.

Now, let me calculate the answer based on the visual data in the graph.


Solution: From the graph, as x5+x \to 5^+, the value of F(x)F(x) approaches 6. Therefore:

limx5+F(x)=6.\lim_{x \to 5^+} F(x) = 6.

Correct Choice: A. limx5+F(x)=6.\text{A. } \lim_{x \to 5^+} F(x) = 6.

Would you like me to explain this further or clarify how limits from the right-hand side are evaluated?
