I was given this problem..



(x - 3)/(SquareRoot(4x2 + 3))



And i was asked to find the limit as X approaches Positive infinity.




I usually understand these kinds of problems, and I know i'm supposed to divide every number in the fraction by the highest degree term in the denominator. But the squareroot threw me off completely.

How can i start to solve this?

(Btw I know the answer is 1/2... but i want to know the steps that are required to get to the answer)

The expression SquareRoot(4x2 + 3) can be written as 2 x SquareRoot(1 + 3/(4x2)).

If x\displaystyle x\to\infty then x>0\displaystyle x>0 divide by x\displaystyle x to get
13x14+3x2\displaystyle \dfrac{1-3x^{-1}}{\sqrt{4+3x^{-2}}} from which the limit should be clear.
