1 AnswerEngineering4 years agoCan a function f and a function g have all 3 of these?
1. The limit of f(x) as x approaches 5 is 0.
2. The limit of g(x) as x approaches 5 is 0.
3. The limit of f(x)/g(x) as x approaches 5 is -2.
I thought the limit of f(x)/g(x) as x approaches 5 was the limit of f(x) as x approaches 5 divided by the limit of g(x) as x approaches 5.
What am I doing wrong?

6 AnswersDesktops8 years agoWhat are the implications of pleading insanity due to epilepsy?
I've heard of people with epilepsy hitting someone during a seizure, not conscientiously intending harm, then being arrested. The option a court gives them is to plea insanity even though they are not insane. What are the consequences of this? Would that person be labeled a danger to society, banned from owning a gun, etc.?
2 AnswersLaw Enforcement & Police8 years agoI've heard it is possible to run Windows and Mac OS on a pc, how would I go about doing that?
My pc has plenty of power to do it, I just don't know how to go about it.
1 AnswerSoftware8 years agoHow does a turkey shoot work?
My understanding is the turkeys are in a pen and people just shoot them, no hunting, no challenge, nothing. If this is the case, then what's the point?
8 AnswersHunting8 years agoBest anchors to use in hollow core concrete ceiling?
It's illegal to use lead caulk in anchors or plastic anchors in ceilings because of the low melting point. You can't use drop ins because its a hollow slab. What's the best anchor to use in these prefab commercial hollow core concrete panels? Would it be tapcons or is there a better hollow wall anchor?
6 AnswersDo It Yourself (DIY)8 years agoHow would banning "assault weapons" help if the vast majority of gun deaths involve hand guns?
My local sheriff reported to the news that they've investigated more murders in he past year involving frying pans than "assault weapons". Handgun deaths, on the other hand, are relatively high in my area. So why go after "assault weapons"?
12 AnswersGovernment8 years agoWhere did 30,000 come from when referencing gun deaths on America?
According to the FBI last year there were 14,000 murders TOTAL in the US, all methods. So where the hell did 30,000 GUN murders per year come from?
15 AnswersPolitics8 years agoWhy does the world have such a problem with America, but not Russia for doing the same things?
One of the biggest problems I hear is that people don't like he way America expanded westward. Yeah, some insane, morally abhorrent things happened and it was wrong. Russia expanded eastward in the same manner, yet noone mentions it. It's just evil, no good America that's always pointed out.
Why is it hat noone wants to acknowledge that America isn't the only country that does and has done reprehensible things?

3 AnswersDogs8 years agoDoes the common Jew really give a damn about using BCE/CE instead of using BC/AD?
I know Jewish academies initiated the move from BC/AD to BCE/CE in order to separate Christianity from the common (Gregorian) calendar, with SOME Jews stating, word for word, that Christians need to realize that it's not their calendar anymore. This was followed by the PC nuts following suit. My question is does the majority of the Jewish community see it this way or do they see it as political correctness out of control?
And no hateful remarks; this isn't an anti-Jew forum, it's an honest question.
13 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoThe Second Amendment from the Liberal View?
Lets not start fights or throw insults at each other, just give me an honest answer. As an Independent, I'm not understanding the Liberal viewpoint of the Second Amendment. Liberals claim the Second Amendment applies only to government militias, but every other word in the Bill of Rights applies to citizens; it's only the Second Amendment that doesn't apply to citizens.
Next is the claim that the founding fathers never envisioned semiautomatic rifle, that muzzle loaders were what they had in mind, and therefore the Second Amendment should not cover semiautomatic guns. At the same time they're saying this they are also fighting for marriage equality and LGBT rights claiming he Constitution's equal protection clause applies to them when homosexuality was shunned in he founding fathers' time. Can you clarify what your beliefs are? Like I said, no insults or whining; don't post "Liberals are stupid" or anything like that, because conservatives and Republicans have no room to talk when it comes to intelligence.
13 AnswersPolitics8 years agoIf North and South Americans are all simply "Americans" does that mean Europeans are Eurasians?
I'm trying to understand the rationale behind the idea that North America and South America are a single continent held by some people who at the same time consider Europe and Asia separate continents. The definition of a continent is a continuous land mass. "Eurasia" is more continuous than "America". Can someone provide some input?
8 AnswersOther - Cultures & Groups8 years agoWhy do some people insist that the US starts wars with countries then steals their oil or minerals?
I've yet to see any ship bringing anything like that back to the US.
Give me an example, other than when Great Britain and BP dragged us into their troubles with Iran.
