SOLUTION 5 :
(Eliminate the square root term by multiplying by the conjugate of the numerator
over itself. Recall that

SOLUTION 6 :
(It may appear that multiplying by the conjugate of the numerator over itself is a
reasonable next step.
It's a good idea, but doesn't work. Instead, write x - 27 as the difference of cubes and
recall that

SOLUTION 10 :
(Factor x from the numerator and denominator, then divide these factors out.)
SOLUTION 11 :
SOLUTION 12 :
(Recall that
.)
(Divide out the factors x - 1 , the factors which are causing the indeterminate form
.
(The numerator approaches 3 and the denominator approaches 0 as x approaches 1 .
However, the quantity
in the denominator is sometimes negative and sometimes positive. Thus, the correct
answer is NEITHER
NOR

Now solve the system of equations
a+2b = 3 and b-4a = 3 .
Thus,
a = 3-2b so that b-4(3-2b) = 3
iff b-12+ 8b = 3
iff 9b = 15
iff
Then
