Problem 1.427 · medium
Evaluate \( \displaystyle \lim_{x \to \frac{1}{3}} \frac{e^{6 x - 2} - 1}{\sin{\left(3 x - 1 \right)}} \).
- \[ \lim_{x \to \frac{1}{3}^+}\left(\frac{e^{6 x - 2} - 1}{\sin{\left(3 x - 1 \right)}}\right) \]limitStart with the original limit.✓ Proved
- \[ = \lim_{x \to \frac{1}{3}^+}\left(\frac{\frac{d}{d x} \left(e^{6 x - 2} - 1\right)}{\frac{d}{d x} \sin{\left(3 x - 1 \right)}}\right) \]lhopitalThe limit is an indeterminate form 0/0, so we apply L'Hôpital's Rule.✓ Proved
- \[ = \lim_{x \to \frac{1}{3}^+}\left(\frac{2 e^{6 x - 2}}{\cos{\left(3 x - 1 \right)}}\right) \]simplify simplifyCompute the derivatives of the numerator and denominator. Simplify the fraction by dividing the constants.✓ Proved
- \[ = 2 \]limit simplify simplify simplifySubstitute the value x = 1/3 into the expression. Simplify the arguments of the exponential and trigonometric functions. Evaluate the exponential and cosine functions. Final result.✓ 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 2026-10-08 with SymPy 1.14.0.
