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

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

- \frac{1}{2}

Decimal Notation

- 0.5

Solution steps

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

Simplify

\frac{1 - x}{x ^{2} - 1} : - \frac{1}{x + 1}

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

Plug in the value

x = 1

= - \frac{1}{1 + 1}

Simplify

= - \frac{1}{2}

\int (2 x - 5)^{7} d x

\int \frac{18}{x ^{2} - x - 20} d x

\int (6 e^{x} + \frac{7}{x}) d x

\int y^{3} + 1.8 y^{2} - 2.4 y d y

y = \frac{x}{x ^{2} + 4}
