OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} (x -\sqrt{x ^{2}+x)}\]

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

I never studied L'hospital's rule. sorry.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

saifoo in which grade u r now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@saifoo.khan , its okay, thanks though :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Rationalize it by\[x + \sqrt{x^2 + x}\]That is, divide and multiply by this and simplify. You will get:\[\frac{-x}{\sqrt{x^2 +x} + x}\]I think this is the way to go, try to simplify this by dividing by x.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay @bmp did u get the answer -1/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah, doing the algebra, that seems to go to -1/2

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

I didn't see that, @bmp , nice job.

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

I got another idea, let me try it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@bmp can u show the working?

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

Let me try mathematica evaulation.

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

It is -1/2

OpenStudy (inkyvoyd):

@fatinatikah , with what @bmp told you, do this.
