limit as x approaches 1 of (2x-5)/(x+1)

x \to 1 lim (\frac{2 x - 5}{x + 1})

- \frac{3}{2}

Decimal Notation

- 1.5

Solution steps

x \to 1 lim (\frac{2 x - 5}{x + 1})

Plug in the value

x = 1

= \frac{2 \cdot 1 - 5}{1 + 1}

Simplify

= - \frac{3}{2}

\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{k x + a}{b x + c})

\int ln (2 x + 1) d x

x (\frac{d y}{d x}) - y = 2 x^{2}

\int \frac{e ^{x}}{( 6 - e ^{x} ) ^{2}} d x

\frac{\partial}{\partial y} (x^{2} y^{4})
