  lim_(x→1)  ((x^(50) −8x+7)/(x^(20) +5x−6)) =?

$$\:\:\underset{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{1}} {\mathrm{lim}}\:\frac{{x}^{\mathrm{50}} −\mathrm{8}{x}+\mathrm{7}}{{x}^{\mathrm{20}} +\mathrm{5}{x}−\mathrm{6}}\:=? \\ $$

Apply L hospital rule  lim_(x→1) ((50x^(49) −8)/(20x^(19) +5))  ((50(1)^(49) −8)/(20(1)^(19) +5))  ((42)/(25))

$$\mathrm{Apply}\:\mathrm{L}\:\mathrm{hospital}\:\mathrm{rule} \\ $$$$\underset{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{1}} {\mathrm{lim}}\frac{\mathrm{50}{x}^{\mathrm{49}} −\mathrm{8}}{\mathrm{20}{x}^{\mathrm{19}} +\mathrm{5}} \\ $$$$\frac{\mathrm{50}\left(\mathrm{1}\right)^{\mathrm{49}} −\mathrm{8}}{\mathrm{20}\left(\mathrm{1}\right)^{\mathrm{19}} +\mathrm{5}} \\ $$$$\frac{\mathrm{42}}{\mathrm{25}} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$ \\ $$

let f(x)=((x^(50) −8x+7)/(x^(20) +5x−6))  changement x−1=t give  f(x)=f(1+t)=(((1+t)^(50) −8(1+t)+7)/((1+t)^(20) +5(1+t)−6))=(((1+t)^(50) −8t−1)/((1+t)^(20)  +5t−1))  (t→0)  ⇒f(1+t)∼((1+50t−8t−1)/(1+20t+5t−1)) =((42)/(25)) ⇒lim_(t→0) f(1+t)=((42)/(25))=lim_(x→1) f(x)

  lim_(x→1) (((x^(50) −1)−8(x−1))/(x^(20) −1+5(x−1)))            =lim_(x→1) (((x−1)(x^(49) +...+x+1−8))/((x−1)(x^(19) +...+x+1+5)))      =((50−8)/(20+5))=((42)/(25))  ✓

$$\:\:{lim}_{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{1}} \frac{\left({x}^{\mathrm{50}} −\mathrm{1}\right)−\mathrm{8}\left({x}−\mathrm{1}\right)}{{x}^{\mathrm{20}} −\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{5}\left({x}−\mathrm{1}\right)} \\ $$$$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:={lim}_{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{1}} \frac{\left({x}−\mathrm{1}\right)\left({x}^{\mathrm{49}} +...+{x}+\mathrm{1}−\mathrm{8}\right)}{\left({x}−\mathrm{1}\right)\left({x}^{\mathrm{19}} +...+{x}+\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{5}\right)} \\ $$$$\:\:\:\:=\frac{\mathrm{50}−\mathrm{8}}{\mathrm{20}+\mathrm{5}}=\frac{\mathrm{42}}{\mathrm{25}}\:\:\checkmark \\ $$
