Solution:
(a)
| Step 1: |
|---|
| First, we have |
| Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \begin{array}{rcl} \displaystyle{2} & = & \displaystyle{\lim_{x\rightarrow 3} \bigg(\frac{f(x)}{2x}+1\bigg)}\\ &&\\ & = & \displaystyle{\lim_{x\rightarrow 3} \frac{f(x)}{2x}+\lim_{x\rightarrow 3} 1}\\ &&\\ & = & \displaystyle{\lim_{x\rightarrow 3} \frac{f(x)}{2x}+1.} \end{array}} |
| Therefore, |
| Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \lim_{x\rightarrow 3} \frac{f(x)}{2x}=1.} |
| Step 2: |
|---|
| Since Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \lim_{x\rightarrow 3} 2x=6\ne 0,} we have |
|
Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \begin{array}{rcl} \displaystyle{1} & = & \displaystyle{\lim_{x\rightarrow 3} \frac{f(x)}{2x}}\\ &&\\ & = & \displaystyle{\frac{\displaystyle{\lim_{x\rightarrow 3} f(x)}}{\displaystyle{\lim_{x\rightarrow 3} 2x}}}\\ &&\\ & = & \displaystyle{\frac{\displaystyle{\lim_{x\rightarrow 3} f(x)}}{6}.} \end{array}} |
| Multiplying both sides by Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle 6,} we get |
