limit as x approaches 0 of (x^3-8x)/(x^2+4x)

x \to 0 lim (\frac{x ^{3} - 8 x}{x ^{2} + 4 x})

- 2

Solution steps

x \to 0 lim (\frac{x ^{3} - 8 x}{x ^{2} + 4 x})

Simplify

\frac{x ^{3} - 8 x}{x ^{2} + 4 x} : \frac{x ^{2} - 8}{x + 4}

= x \to 0 lim (\frac{x ^{2} - 8}{x + 4})

Plug in the value

x = 0

= \frac{0 ^{2} - 8}{0 + 4}

Simplify

\frac{0 ^{2} - 8}{0 + 4} : - 2

= - 2
