Given #(sqrtx - 5) / (x - 25)# how do you find the limit as x approaches 25? Calculus Limits Determining Limits Algebraically 1 Answer Eddie Sep 13, 2016 #1/10# Explanation: #lim_(x to 25) (sqrt x - 5)/(x-25)# #lim_(x to 25) (sqrt x - 5)/((sqrt x - 5)(sqrt x + 5))# #lim_(x to 25) 1/(sqrt x + 5)# #= 1/10# Answer link Related questions How do you find the limit #lim_(x->5)(x^2-6x+5)/(x^2-25)# ?
