limit as x approaches-1 of x^2-3x — step-by-step solution

⚠ 3x is read as the product 3*x: for a power, write 3^x

Let's evaluate the limit of

x^{2} - 3 x

when

x \to -1

The limit of

x^{2}

{(-1)}^{2}

when

x \to -1

⇥Let's evaluate:

{(-1)}^{2}

⇥

1

The limit of

- 3 x

- 3 \cdot (-1)

when

x \to -1

⇥Let's evaluate:

- 3 \cdot (-1)

⇥

3

So the limit of

x^{2} - 3 x

1 + 3

when

x \to -1

⇥Let's calculate:

1 + 3
