Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Apply L'Hospital's Rule

Differentiate numerator and denominator. The derivative of (y = x) is (y'=1). The derivative of (y=\sqrt{x^{2}+4}=(x^{2} + 4)^{\frac{1}{2}}) using the chain - rule ((u^{n})'=nu^{n - 1}u') where (u=x^{2}+4), (n=\frac{1}{2}). (y'=\frac{1}{2}(x^{2}+4)^{-\frac{1}{2}}\cdot2x=\frac{x}{\sqrt{x^{2}+4}}) So, (\lim_{x\rightarrow\infty}\frac{x}{\sqrt{x^{2}+4}}) becomes (\lim_{x\rightarrow\infty}\frac{1}{\frac{x}{\sqrt{x^{2}+4}}}=\lim_{x\rightarrow\infty}\frac{\sqrt{x^{2}+4}}{x})

Step2: Simplify the original limit without L'Hospital's Rule

Divide numerator and denominator by (x) (since (x\rightarrow\infty,x>0)). (\lim_{x\rightarrow\infty}\frac{x}{\sqrt{x^{2}+4}}=\lim_{x\rightarrow\infty}\frac{x}{|x|\sqrt{1 + \frac{4}{x^{2}}}}) Since (x\rightarrow\infty,x>0), (|x| = x). (\lim_{x\rightarrow\infty}\frac{x}{x\sqrt{1+\frac{4}{x^{2}}}}=\lim_{x\rightarrow\infty}\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+\frac{4}{x^{2}}}})

Step3: Evaluate the limit

As (x\rightarrow\infty,\frac{4}{x^{2}}\rightarrow0). (\lim_{x\rightarrow\infty}\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+\frac{4}{x^{2}}}} = 1)

Answer:

Repeated applications of l'Hospital's Rule result in the original limit or the limit of the reciprocal of the function. The value of the limit (\lim_{x\rightarrow\infty}\frac{x}{\sqrt{x^{2}+4}}) is (1)
