MCQ
$\lim _{x \rightarrow 4} \frac{3-\sqrt{5+x}}{1-\sqrt{5-x}}=$
  • A
    $0$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{3}$
  • $-\frac{1}{3}$
  • D
    does not exist

Answer

Correct option: C.
$-\frac{1}{3}$
(C)
Applying L-Hospital's rule, we get
$\lim _{x \rightarrow 4} \frac{3-\sqrt{5+x}}{1-\sqrt{5-x}}=\lim _{x \rightarrow 4} \frac{\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{5+x}}}{-\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{5-x}}}$
$=-\lim _{x \rightarrow 4} \frac{\sqrt{5-x}}{\sqrt{5+x}}=\frac{-1}{\sqrt{9}}=-\frac{1}{3}$
