\[\lim_{x \rightarrow \inf}\frac{ \sqrt{5+4x^2} }{ 4+3x }\]
So far I have done the following.
\[\lim_{x \rightarrow \inf}\frac{ \sqrt{5+4x^2} }{ 4+3x} \times \frac{ \sqrt{5+4x^2} }{ \sqrt{5+4x^2} } = \frac{ 5+4x^2 }{(4+3x)\sqrt{5+4x^2} }\]

you get
\[\frac{\sqrt{4x^2}}{3x}=\frac{2x}{3x}=\frac{2}{3}\] that is all
OpenStudy (anonymous):
humm, is that the same if you was to go to -inf ?
OpenStudy (misty1212):
no
OpenStudy (anonymous):
How do i think about it if I was to approach -inf
OpenStudy (misty1212):
if you go to \(-\infty\) the numerator is positive but the denominator is negative so you get \(-\frac{2}{3}\)
