Answer:
[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{3x - 1}{\sqrt{x^2 - 6}} = 3[/tex]
General Formulas and Concepts:
Calculus
Limits
Coefficient Power Method: [tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x \to \pm \infty} \frac{ax^n}{bx^n} = \frac{a}{b}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the limit:
[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{3x - 1}{\sqrt{x^2 - 6}}[/tex]
We can see that if we "simplify" the radical, resulting in a degree of 1. Let's use Coefficient Power Method to evaluate the limit:
[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{3x - 1}{\sqrt{x^2 - 6}} = \frac{3}{1}[/tex]
Simplifying it:
[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{3x - 1}{\sqrt{x^2 - 6}} = 3[/tex]
And we have our answer.
