L =
3.Medium
xyy = L

Find the limit L = limx→∞ (−6x3 + 3x − 3)/(3x3 + 4x + 2).

f(x) = (−6x3 + 3x − 3)/(3x3 + 4x + 2)x → ∞
L =
4.Medium
xyy = L

Find the limit L = limx→∞ (√(x2 + 10x) − x).

f(x) = √(x2 + 10x) − xx → ∞
L =
5.Hard
xyx = 0

Find the limit L = limx→0 (1 − cos 2x)/(3x²), with x in radians.

f(x) = (1 − cos 2x)/(3x²)x → 0
L =
6.Hard
xyx = 0

Find the limit L = limx→0 (ex − 1 − x)/x².

f(x) = (ex − 1 − x)/x²x → 0
L =
