Question

Evaluate the following limit: $\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow5}\frac{\text{x}-5}{\sqrt{6\text{x}-5}-\sqrt{4\text{x}+5}}$

Answer

$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow5}\frac{\text{x}-5}{\sqrt{6\text{x}-5}-\sqrt{4\text{x}+5}}$ $=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow5}\frac{\text{x}-5}{\big(\sqrt{6\text{x}-5}-\sqrt{4\text{x}+5}\big)}\times\frac{\big(\sqrt{6\text{x}-5}+\sqrt{4\text{x}+5}\big)}{\big(\sqrt{6\text{x}-5}+\sqrt{4\text{x}+5}\big)}$ $=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow5}\frac{(\text{x}-5)\big(\sqrt{6\text{x}-5}+\sqrt{4\text{x}+5}\big)}{(6\text{x}-5)-(4\text{x}+5)}$ $=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow5}\frac{(\text{x}-5)\big(\sqrt{6\text{x}-5}+\sqrt{4\text{x}+5}\big)}{2\text{x}-10}$ $=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow5}\frac{(\text{x}-5)\big(\sqrt{6\text{x}-5}+\sqrt{4\text{x}+5}\big)}{2(\text{x}-5)}$ $=\frac{\sqrt{6(5)-5}+\sqrt{4(5)+5}}{2}$ $=\frac{\sqrt{25}+\sqrt{25}}{2}$ $=\frac{5+5}{2}=5$
