Limit of \( \displaystyle \sqrt{3 x + 6} \) as \( x \to 1 \)
Problem 1.108 · easy
Evaluate \( \displaystyle \lim_{x \to 1} \sqrt{3 x + 6} \).
- \[ \lim_{x \to 1^+} \sqrt{3 x + 6} \]limitStart with the limit expression.✓ Proved
- \[ = 3 \]limit simplify simplifySince the function is continuous at x = 1, we can evaluate by direct substitution. Simplify the expression inside the square root. Calculate the square root.✓ Proved

Proved: SymPy reduced the difference between the two sides to zero. Checked independently: a separate
method, named above, confirmed it. Checked numerically: the two sides agree at every sampled point, which is evidence,
not proof. Reviewed: a model or a person read it; that is all a sentence can have. Solution by
gemma4:26b, checked 2026-10-03 with SymPy 1.14.0.
