Step-by-step solution

Here are the solutions for the given limit problems:

  1. Find the limiting value of lim⁡x→2{2x−2x−1}\lim_{x \to 2} \left\{ \frac{2x-2}{x-1} \right\}
  1. Substitute x=2x=2 into the expression.

    $$
    \lim_{x \to 2} \left\{ \frac{2x-2}{x-1} \right\} = \frac{2(2)-2}{2-1}
    $$
    
  2. Simplify the expression.

    $$
    = \frac{4-2}{1} = \frac{2}{1} = 2
    $$
    The limiting value is $\boxed{2}$.
    

    2. Evaluate lim⁡x→3x−3x2−5x+6\lim_{x \to 3} \frac{x-3}{x^2-5x+6}

  3. Substitute x=3x=3 into the expression.

    This results in an indeterminate form 00\frac{0}{0}. 3−332−5(3)+6=09−15+6=00 \frac{3-3}{3^2-5(3)+6} = \frac{0}{9-15+6} = \frac{0}{0}

  4. Factor the denominator.

    $$
    x^2-5x+6 = (x-2)(x-3)
    $$
    
  5. Rewrite the limit expression and cancel out the common factor (x−3)(x-3).

    $$
    \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{x-3}{(x-2)(x-3)} = \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{1}{x-2}
    $$
    
  6. Substitute x=3x=3 into the simplified expression.

    $$
    = \frac{1}{3-2} = \frac{1}{1} = 1
    $$
    The limit is $\boxed{1}$.
    

    3. Evaluate lim⁡x→02x3−3x2+4x5x3+2x2−3x\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{2x^3-3x^2+4x}{5x^3+2x^2-3x}

  7. Substitute x=0x=0 into the expression.

    This results in an indeterminate form 00\frac{0}{0}. 2(0)3−3(0)2+4(0)5(0)3+2(0)2−3(0)=00 \frac{2(0)^3-3(0)^2+4(0)}{5(0)^3+2(0)^2-3(0)} = \frac{0}{0}

  8. Factor out xx from both the numerator and the denominator.

    $$
    \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{x(2x^2-3x+4)}{x(5x^2+2x-3)}
    $$
    
  9. Cancel out the common factor xx.

    $$
    = \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{2x^2-3x+4}{5x^2+2x-3}
    $$
    
  10. Substitute x=0x=0 into the simplified expression.

    $$
    = \frac{2(0)^2-3(0)+4}{5(0)^2+2(0)-3} = \frac{0-0+4}{0+0-3} = \frac{4}{-3}
    $$
    The limit is $\boxed*{-\frac{4}{3}*}$.
    

    4. Evaluate lim⁡x→0(3x−4)(2x+3)−(5x−2)(x+6)x(x2−9)\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{(3x-4)(2x+3)-(5x-2)(x+6)}{x(x^2-9)}

  11. Substitute x=0x=0 into the expression.

    This results in an indeterminate form 00\frac{0}{0}. (3(0)−4)(2(0)+3)−(5(0)−2)(0+6)0(02−9)=(−4)(3)−(−2)(6)0=−12−(−12)0=00 \frac{(3(0)-4)(2(0)+3)-(5(0)-2)(0+6)}{0(0^2-9)} = \frac{(-4)(3)-(-2)(6)}{0} = \frac{-12 - (-12)}{0} = \frac{0}{0}

  12. Expand and simplify the numerator.

    $$
    (3x-4)(2x+3) = 6x^2+9x-8x-12 = 6x^2+x-12
    $$
    $$
    (5x-2)(x+6) = 5x^2+30x-2x-12 = 5x^2+28x-12
    $$
    Numerator:
    $$
    (6x^2+x-12) - (5x^2+28x-12) = 6x^2+x-12-5x^2-28x+12
    $$
    $$
    = (6x^2-5x^2) + (x-28x) + (-12+12) = x^2-27x
    $$
    
  13. Factor out xx from the simplified numerator.

    $$
    x^2-27x = x(x-27)
    $$
    
  14. Rewrite the limit expression with the simplified numerator and cancel out the common factor xx.

    $$
    \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{x(x-27)}{x(x^2-9)} = \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{x-27}{x^2-9}
    $$
    
  15. Substitute x=0x=0 into the simplified expression.

    $$
    = \frac{0-27}{0^2-9} = \frac{-27}{-9} = 3
    $$
    The limit is $\boxed{3}$.
