Finding Limits Algebraically

Finding a Limit

Finding a Limit

The limit of f(x)=−1(x+4)+4f(x)= \frac{-1}{(x+4)} + 4f(x)=​(x+4)​​−1​​+4 as xxx goes to infinity can be segmented down into two parts: the limit of $\frac{−1}{(x+4)}$ and the limit of 444. The former is 000, while the latter is 444. Therefore, the limit of f(x)f(x)f(x) as xxx goes to infinity is 444.
