Evaluate $\lim _{x \rightarrow 3}\left(\frac{x^{4}-81}{x-3}\right)$
To evaluate: $\lim _{x \rightarrow 3} \frac{x^{4}-81}{x-3}$
Formula used:
We have,
$\lim _{x \rightarrow a} f(x)=f(a)$ and
As $\mathrm{x} \rightarrow 3$, we have
$\lim _{x \rightarrow 3} \frac{x^{4}-81}{x-3}=\lim _{x \rightarrow 3} \frac{\left(x^{2}+9\right)\left(x^{2}-9\right)}{x-3}$
$\lim _{x \rightarrow 3} \frac{x^{4}-81}{x-3}=\lim _{x \rightarrow 3} \frac{\left(x^{2}+9\right)(x+3)(x-3)}{x-3}$
$\lim _{x \rightarrow 3} \frac{x^{4}-81}{x-3}=\lim _{x \rightarrow 3}\left(x^{2}+9\right)(x+3)$
$\lim _{x \rightarrow 3} \frac{x^{4}-81}{x-3}=(9+9)(3+3)$
$\lim _{x \rightarrow 3} \frac{x^{4}-81}{x-3}=486$
Thus, the value of $\lim _{x \rightarrow 3} \frac{x^{4}-81}{x-3}$ is 486 .
