Whats your question?

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

Solve algebraically: \[\LARGE \lim_{x \rightarrow \infty}~(\sqrt{x^2+7x}-\sqrt{x^2+5x})\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

every time you see a square root, it's always a good idea to try the conjugate

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2x / (sqrt(x^2+7x) + sqrt(x^2+5x))

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am in 6 grade right now... that looks soooooooooo hard! O.o

OpenStudy (anonymous):

they divide both top and bottom by x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i believe the limit is 1 if my mental calculation is correct

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

Yup~ Just trying to see if anyone would of suggested a different method other than conjugate.. guess that's the only way xD Thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm sure there are other ways to find the limit, but conjugate is the most common method when it comes to square root

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

Thanks @sourwing And did you spam my question with a question? xD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

uhm...what?

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

I was referring to @RebeccaPink6398 >.>
