\[\lim_{x \rightarrow 2} \frac{ \sqrt{7-x} -3 }{ x^{2} + x -2 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is it continuous?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sory my mistake \[\lim_{x \rightarrow -2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I dunno... lHopital?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

t tried to conjugate.. but cannot find its value...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm guessing you haven't learned L'Hopital's rule?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay what happened when you multiply conjugate?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[ \lim_{x \rightarrow 2} \frac{ \sqrt{7-x} -3 }{ x^{2} + x -2 } = \lim_{x \rightarrow 2} \frac{ (7-x) -9 }{ (x+2)(x-1)(\sqrt{7-x} +3) } \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[ = \lim_{x \rightarrow -2} \frac{ -(x+2) }{ (x+2)(x-1)(\sqrt{7-x} +3) } \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now try

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes... i get its...
