limit as x approaches 0 of (x^2-5x)/(x^2+8x)

x \to 0 lim (\frac{x ^{2} - 5 x}{x ^{2} + 8 x})

- \frac{5}{8}

Decimal Notation

- 0.625

Solution steps

x \to 0 lim (\frac{x ^{2} - 5 x}{x ^{2} + 8 x})

Simplify

\frac{x ^{2} - 5 x}{x ^{2} + 8 x} : \frac{x - 5}{x + 8}

= x \to 0 lim (\frac{x - 5}{x + 8})

Plug in the value

x = 0

= \frac{0 - 5}{0 + 8}

Simplify

= - \frac{5}{8}

x \to - 2 - lim (\frac{x ^{2} + 1}{x + 2})

x \to - \infty lim (\frac{x}{0})

x \to 0 lim (arccot (x))

x \to 3 lim (\frac{3}{x ^{2} - 6 x + 9})

x \to 0 + lim ((g (x))^{\frac{l n ( 2 )}{x}})
