$${a}>\mathrm{0}\:\Rightarrow\:\underset{{x}\rightarrow\infty} {\mathrm{lim}}\:\sqrt{{ax}^{\mathrm{2}} +{bx}+{c}}−\left(\sqrt{{a}}{x}+{d}\right)\:=\frac{{b}}{\mathrm{2}\sqrt{{a}}}−{d} \\ $$

$$=\frac{−\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{16}}}−\mathrm{5}=−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}}−\mathrm{5}=−\frac{\mathrm{21}}{\mathrm{4}} \\ $$
