Question

Evaluate the following limit :

`lim_(u -> 1) [(u^4 - 1)/(u^3 - 1)]`

Sum

Solution

`lim_(u -> 1) [(u^4 - 1)/(u^3 - 1)]`

= `lim_(u -> 1) ((u^4 - 1^4)/(u - 1))/((u^3 - 1^3)/(u - 1))   ...[(because  u  -> 1"," therefore u ≠ 1","),(therefore u - 1 ≠ 0)]`

= `(lim_(u -> 1) ((u^4 - 1^4)/(u - 1)))/(lim_(u -> 1)((u^3 - 1^3)/(u - 1))`

= `(4(1)^3)/(3(1)^2)   ...[because  lim_(x -> "a") (x^"n" - "a"^"n")/(x - "a") = "na"^("n" - 1)]`

= `4/3`
