lim_(x→−∞ ) (x(√(2x+2))−x(√(2x+3)))

$$\underset{{x}\rightarrow−\infty\:} {\mathrm{lim}}\:\left(\mathrm{x}\sqrt{\mathrm{2x}+\mathrm{2}}−\mathrm{x}\sqrt{\mathrm{2x}+\mathrm{3}}\right) \\ $$

2x+2≥0 ⇒x≥−1 ⇒for x→−∞ function not defined! it should be x→+∞! lim_(x→+∞ ) (x(√(2x+2))−x(√(2x+3))) =lim_(x→+∞) ((−x)/((√(2x+2))+(√(2x+3)))) =lim_(x→+∞) ((−(√x))/((√(2+(2/x)))+(√(2+(3/x))))) =lim_(x→+∞) ((−∞)/(2(√2))) =−∞

$$\mathrm{2}{x}+\mathrm{2}\geqslant\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{x}\geqslant−\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{for}\:{x}\rightarrow−\infty\:{function}\:{not}\:{defined}! \\ $$$${it}\:{should}\:{be}\:{x}\rightarrow+\infty! \\ $$$$\underset{{x}\rightarrow+\infty\:} {\mathrm{lim}}\:\left(\mathrm{x}\sqrt{\mathrm{2x}+\mathrm{2}}−\mathrm{x}\sqrt{\mathrm{2x}+\mathrm{3}}\right) \\ $$$$=\underset{{x}\rightarrow+\infty} {\mathrm{lim}}\frac{−{x}}{\sqrt{\mathrm{2}{x}+\mathrm{2}}+\sqrt{\mathrm{2}{x}+\mathrm{3}}} \\ $$$$=\underset{{x}\rightarrow+\infty} {\mathrm{lim}}\frac{−\sqrt{{x}}}{\sqrt{\mathrm{2}+\frac{\mathrm{2}}{{x}}}+\sqrt{\mathrm{2}+\frac{\mathrm{3}}{{x}}}} \\ $$$$=\underset{{x}\rightarrow+\infty} {\mathrm{lim}}\frac{−\infty}{\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}} \\ $$$$=−\infty \\ $$

yes sir. it impossible for x →−∞

$$\mathrm{yes}\:\mathrm{sir}.\:\mathrm{it}\:\mathrm{impossible}\:\mathrm{for}\:\mathrm{x}\:\rightarrow−\infty \\ $$

function not defined at −∞ at +∞ we have (√(2x+2))=(√(2x(1+(1/x))))=(√(2x))(1+(1/x))^(1/2) =(√(2x)){1+(1/2)×(1/x) +(((1/2)((1/2)−1))/2)×(1/x^2 ) +o((1/x^3 ))} =(√(2x)){1+(1/(2x))−(1/(8x^2 )) +o((1/x^3 ))} (√(2x+3))=(√(2x(1+(3/(2x)))))=(√(2x))(1+(3/(2x)))^(1/2) =(√(2x)){1+(1/2)((3/(2x))) −(1/8)((3/(2x)))^2 +o((1/x^3 ))} =(√(2x)){1+(3/(4x))−(9/(32x^2 )) +o((1/x^3 ))} ⇒ f(x)∼(√(2x))(x+(1/2)−(1/(8x))+o((1/x^2 )))−(√(2x))(x+(3/4)−(9/(32x)) +o((1/x^2 ))) ⇒ f(x)∼(√(2x)){(1/2)−(3/4)−(1/(8x))+(9/(32x)) +o((1/x^2 ))) ⇒ f(x)∼−(1/4)(√(2x))−((3(√2))/(8(√x))) +((9(√2))/(32(√x))) ⇒lim_(x→+∞) f(x)=−∞
