Transcript text: Divide the numerator and the denominator by the highest power of $x$ in the denominator and proceed from there. Find the limit. Write $\infty$ or $-\infty$ where appropriate.
\[
\lim _{x \rightarrow-\infty} \frac{\sqrt[3]{x}-3 x+5}{2 x+x^{\frac{2}{3}}-7}
\]
$\lim _{x \rightarrow-\infty} \frac{\sqrt[3]{x}-3 x+5}{2 x+x^{\frac{2}{3}}-7}=$
Solution
Solution Steps
To find the limit as \( x \) approaches \(-\infty\) for the given expression, we need to divide both the numerator and the denominator by the highest power of \( x \) in the denominator. This will help us simplify the expression and determine the limit.
Identify the highest power of \( x \) in the denominator, which is \( x \).
Divide every term in both the numerator and the denominator by \( x \).
Simplify the resulting expression.
Evaluate the limit as \( x \) approaches \(-\infty\).
Step 1: Identify the Highest Power of \( x \) in the Denominator
The highest power of \( x \) in the denominator is \( x \).
Step 2: Divide Each Term by the Highest Power of \( x \)
Divide every term in both the numerator and the denominator by \( x \):
\[
\frac{\sqrt[3]{x} - 3x + 5}{2x + x^{\frac{2}{3}} - 7} \div x = \frac{\frac{\sqrt[3]{x}}{x} - \frac{3x}{x} + \frac{5}{x}}{\frac{2x}{x} + \frac{x^{\frac{2}{3}}}{x} - \frac{7}{x}}
