Question #089de Calculus Limits Determining Limits Algebraically 1 Answer Eddie Sep 3, 2016 # = 1/14# Explanation: #lim_(h to 0) {sqrt(49 + h) - 7}/h# #= lim_(h to 0) {7sqrt(1 + h/49) - 7}/h# Binomial Expansion of sqrt term #= lim_(h to 0) {7(1 + 1/2 h/49 + O(h^2)) - 7}/h# #= lim_(h to 0) { 7/2h/49 + O(h^2) }/h# #= lim_(h to 0) 1/14 + O(h)# # = 1/14# Answer link Related questions How do you find the limit #lim_(x->5)(x^2-6x+5)/(x^2-25)# ?
