How do you solve the following limits algebrically?
Lim X----->0 (-1/(3+x)+1/3)/ (x)
Lim h----->0 ((x+h)^2+(x+h))-(X^2+x)/h
Lim X----->0 (-1/(3+x)+1/3)/ (x)
Lim h----->0 ((x+h)^2+(x+h))-(X^2+x)/h

to solve algebraically, simplify the fractions first
1) [ -1/(3+x)+(1/3)]/x
in the numerator, get a common denominator
= [(-3+3+x)/3(3+x)] * 1/x
= (x)[(9+3x)(x)]
= 1/(9+3x)
Now lim (x->0)= 1/9
2) {[ (x+h)^2+(x+h)]-(x^2+x)}/ h. Is the whole difference over h?( it is actually the derivative)
= (x^2+2xh+h^2+x+h-x^2-x)/h
= (2xh+h^2+h)/h
= 2x+h+1
Lim(h->0)= 2x+1
Hoping this helps!
