Evaluate the following limits: lim(xrar...

Evaluate the following limits: `lim_(xrarr4)((3-sqrt(5+x))/(1-sqrt(5-x)))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`(-1)/(3)`

Given limit `=lim_(xto4){((3-sqrt(5+x)))/((1-sqrt(5-x)))xx((1+sqrt(5-x)))/((1+sqrt(5-x)))xx((3+sqrt(5+x)))/((3+sqrt(5+x)))}`
`lim_(xto4)({9-(5+x)}(1+sqrt(5-x)))/({(1-5-x)}(3+sqrt5+x))=lim_(xto4)((4-x)(1+sqrt(5-x)))/(-(4-x)(3+sqrt(5+x)))`
`=lim_(xto4)((1+sqrt(5-x)))/(-(3+sqrt(5+x)))=((1+sqrt1))/(-(3+sqrt9))=(2)/(-6)=-1/3.`
