1.Easy
xyx = 3

Find the limit L = limx→3 (x3 − 27)/(x − 3).

f(x) = (x3 − 27)/(x − 3)x → 3
L =
2.Easy
xyx = 1

Find the limit L = limx→1 (x2 − 5x + 4)/(x − 1).

f(x) = (x2 − 5x + 4)/(x − 1)x → 1
L =
3.Medium
xyy = L

Find the limit L = limx→∞ (1 + 0.5/x)2x. Give a decimal value.

f(x) = (1 + 0.5/x)2xx → ∞
L =
4.Medium
xyy = L

Find the limit L = limx→∞ (5x3 + 4x + 3)/(2x3 + 4x + 6).

f(x) = (5x3 + 4x + 3)/(2x3 + 4x + 6)x → ∞
L =
5.Hard
xyx = 0

Find the limit L = limx→0 (1 − cos 5x)/(x²), with x in radians.

f(x) = (1 − cos 5x)/(x²)x → 0
L =
6.Hard
xyx = 0

Find the limit L = limx→0 (e−2x − 1 + 2x)/x².

f(x) = (e−2x − 1 + 2x)/x²x → 0
L =
