Answer

You're asking about the part where we evaluate the limit of the numerator as x→∞x \to \infty.

Let's break down that step:

Step 1: Understanding the limit evaluation.
We had the expression for N(x)N(x) as:

N(x)=21+2x+3x2+1+3x2N(x) = \frac{2}{\sqrt{1+\frac{2}{x}+\frac{3}{x^2}} + \sqrt{1+\frac{3}{x^2}}}

When we take the limit as x→∞x \to \infty, we consider what happens to each term involving xx:

  • For any constant cc, lim⁡x→∞cx=0\lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{c}{x} = 0.
  • For any constant cc, lim⁡x→∞cx2=0\lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{c}{x^2} = 0.

Applying this to our expression:

  • lim⁡x→∞2x=0\lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{2}{x} = 0
  • lim⁡x→∞3x2=0\lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{3}{x^2} = 0 (in the first square root)
  • lim⁡x→∞3x2=0\lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{3}{x^2} = 0 (in the second square root)

So, when we substitute these limit values into the expression for N(x)N(x):

lim⁡x→∞N(x)=21+0+0+1+0\lim_{x \to \infty} N(x) = \frac{2}{\sqrt{1+0+0} + \sqrt{1+0}} =21+1= \frac{2}{\sqrt{1} + \sqrt{1}} =21+1= \frac{2}{1 + 1} =22= \frac{2}{2} =1= 1

This is how we arrive at the value of 1 for the limit of the numerator.
