rainbowgirl it's a limit (You look like you've never heard of calculus)

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

You want to find a way to eliminate the square root . this function is \[\lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} \frac{n-\sqrt{n^2+2n+3}}{1}\]In cases like these, you multiply by the conjugate, \( n+ \sqrt{n^2 +2n +3}\)

@Jhannybean thx

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

you multiply both top and bottom of your original function by the conjugate* sorry.

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

Similar to \( (a-b)(a+b) = a^2 -b^2\), you will by left with a square root-less function ontoop, with your conjugate on bottom. Do you still need me to explain further? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Jhannybean I got the idea

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

Great :) good luck!
