Correct answer: B

  1. Write the limit in a simpler form

We need to evaluate

L=lim⁡x→∞(2x2−3x+5)(3x−1)x/2(3x2+5x+4)(3x+2)x.L=\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{(2x^2-3x+5)(3x-1)^{x/2}}{(3x^2+5x+4)\sqrt{(3x+2)^x}}.L=x→∞lim​(3x2+5x+4)(3x+2)x​(2x2−3x+5)(3x−1)x/2​.

Since

(3x+2)x=(3x+2)x/2,\sqrt{(3x+2)^x}=(3x+2)^{x/2},(3x+2)x​=(3x+2)x/2,

we get

L=lim⁡x→∞2x2−3x+53x2+5x+4(3x−13x+2)x/2.L=\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{2x^2-3x+5}{3x^2+5x+4}\left(\frac{3x-1}{3x+2}\right)^{x/2}.L=x→∞lim​3x2+5x+42x2−3x+5​(3x+23x−1​)x/2.

So the limit is the product of two simpler limits.


  1. Evaluate the rational factor
lim⁡x→∞2x2−3x+53x2+5x+4=23.\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{2x^2-3x+5}{3x^2+5x+4}=\frac{2}{3}.x→∞lim​3x2+5x+42x2−3x+5​=32​.
  1. Evaluate the exponential factor

Consider

M=lim⁡x→∞(3x−13x+2)x/2.M=\lim_{x\to\infty}\left(\frac{3x-1}{3x+2}\right)^{x/2}.M=x→∞lim​(3x+23x−1​)x/2.

First simplify the base:

3x−13x+2=1−33x+2.\frac{3x-1}{3x+2}=1-\frac{3}{3x+2}.3x+23x−1​=1−3x+23​.

Hence

M=lim⁡x→∞(1−33x+2)x/2.M=\lim_{x\to\infty}\left(1-\frac{3}{3x+2}\right)^{x/2}.M=x→∞lim​(1−3x+23​)x/2.

Now use the standard exponential-limit form. Let

ln⁡M=lim⁡x→∞x2ln⁡(1−33x+2).\ln M=\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{x}{2}\ln\left(1-\frac{3}{3x+2}\right).lnM=x→∞lim​2x​ln(1−3x+23​).

Using ln⁡(1+u)∼u\ln(1+u)\sim uln(1+u)∼u as u→0u\to 0u→0,

ln⁡M=lim⁡x→∞x2(−33x+2)=−12lim⁡x→∞3x3x+2=−12.\ln M=\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{x}{2}\left(-\frac{3}{3x+2}\right) =-\frac{1}{2}\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{3x}{3x+2}=-\frac{1}{2}.lnM=x→∞lim​2x​(−3x+23​)=−21​x→∞lim​3x+23x​=−21​.

Therefore

M=e−1/2=1e.M=e^{-1/2}=\frac{1}{\sqrt e}.M=e−1/2=e​1​.
  1. Combine both limits

Thus,

L=23⋅1e=23e.L=\frac{2}{3}\cdot\frac{1}{\sqrt e}=\frac{2}{3\sqrt e}.L=32​⋅e​1​=3e​2​.
  1. Match with the options
23e\boxed{\frac{2}{3\sqrt e}}3e​2​​

which is Option B.


  1. Comparison with stored answer

Stored correct answer: B

Our derived answer: B

So they agree.
