a limit is concerned with how a funciton behaves very close to a certain point.

it is written simply as limf(x) = A, x>a

As we are told the number of girls that are in the school, our first step should be to calculate the number of boys in the school through a simple subtraction (1200-575 = 625). After this we are told that...

X+2/5X = 63 or 63 = 140%

First we need to understand that the original price (X) has been increased by 40%. Hence, by 2/5 (40/100 = 40%) of its original value, in other words, 2/5X.

To find ...
