√𝑥 2 +9 − 3
Find lim = ...
𝑥→0 𝑥2

Answer:
We cannot use the substitution method because the numerator and denominator would be zero.
√𝑥 2 +9 − 3 √𝑥 2 +9 − 3 √𝑥 2 +9 + 3
lim = lim

Number 3
A ball is thrown into the air at 40 feet/second and its height after t second is given y = 40t −
16𝑡 2 . Determine the speed of the ball when t = 2 second.
Answer:
Instantaneous speed equation as the limit of average speed
𝑓(𝑡+ℎ)−𝑓(𝑡)
V(t) = lim
ℎ→0 ℎ

40(𝑡+ℎ)−16(𝑡+ℎ)2 −(40(𝑡)−16𝑡 2 )
= lim
ℎ→0 ℎ

40𝑡+40ℎ−16(𝑡 2 +2𝑡ℎ+ℎ2 )−40𝑡+16𝑡 2

= lim
ℎ→0 ℎ

40ℎ−32𝑡ℎ−16ℎ2
= lim
ℎ→0 ℎ

ℎ(40−32𝑡−16ℎ)
= lim
ℎ→0 ℎ

= 40 – 32t
Thus the speed at t = 2 second is v = 40 – 32(2) = –24 feet/second.
Negative signs indicate the motion of the ball opposite the motion of the ball when thrown
into the air.
