Question

Evaluate the following limit: $\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow1}\frac{1-\text{x}^{\frac{-1}{3}}}{1-\text{x}^{\frac{-2}{3}}}$

✓

Answer

$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow1}\frac{1-\text{x}^{\frac{-1}{3}}}{1-\text{x}^{\frac{-2}{3}}}$ $=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow1}\frac{1-\frac{1}{\text{x}^{\frac{1}{3}}}}{{1-\frac{1}{\text{x}^{\frac23}}}}$ $=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow1}\frac{\Big(\text{x}^{\frac13}-1\Big)}{\Big(\text{x}^{\frac{1}{3}}-1\Big)\Big(\text{x}^{\frac13}+1\Big)}\times\text{x}^{\frac{1}{3}}$ $=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow1}\frac{\text{x}^{\frac{1}{3}}}{\text{x}^{\frac{1}{3}}+1}$ $=\frac{1}{1+1}$ $=\frac{1}{2}$
