limit as x approaches 8-of (x-9)/(x-8)

Compute the limit of

\frac{x - 9}{x - 8}

as

x \to 8

⁻

The limit of

x - 9

is

8 - 9

when

x \to 8

⁻

⇥Let's calculate:

8 - 9

⇥

-1

The limit of

x - 8

is (

8 - 8

)⁻ when

x \to 8

⁻

⇥Let's evaluate:

8 - 8

⇥

0

So the limit of

\frac{x - 9}{x - 8}

is

+∞

when

x \to 8

⁻

▶Limit:
