Solution

You've uploaded an image of a set of mathematical problems that involve evaluating limits. Let me extract the relevant text and solve a few of the problems you need help with. One moment while I process the image.The image contains a series of limit problems numbered from 1 to 15. Based on the circled problems (1, 2, 3, 10, 13, and 14), I will solve these first. Let’s break them down step-by-step.


Problem 1:

limx12e3x+4\lim_{x \to 1} 2e^{3x + 4}
Solution:
Substitute x=1x = 1:
2e3(1)+4=2e7.2e^{3(1) + 4} = 2e^{7}.
The limit is: 2e7.\boxed{2e^7}.


Problem 2:

limx6ln(x+7)\lim_{x \to -6} \ln(x + 7)
Solution:
Substitute x=6x = -6:
ln(6+7)=ln(1)=0.\ln(-6 + 7) = \ln(1) = 0.
The limit is: 0.\boxed{0}.


Problem 3:

limx2log3(4x+1)\lim_{x \to 2} \log_3(4x + 1)
Solution:
Substitute x=2x = 2:
log3(4(2)+1)=log3(9).\log_3(4(2) + 1) = \log_3(9).
Since log3(9)=2\log_3(9) = 2:
2.\boxed{2}.


Problem 10:

limx23ln(2x4)\lim_{x \to \frac{2}{3}} \ln(2x - 4)
Solution:
Substitute x=23x = \frac{2}{3}:
2(23)4=434=83.2\left(\frac{2}{3}\right) - 4 = \frac{4}{3} - 4 = -\frac{8}{3}.
Since the argument of the natural logarithm is negative, this limit does not exist.
Does not exist.\boxed{\text{Does not exist}}.


Problem 13:

limx2[26(4x+3)+9]\lim_{x \to 2} \left[\frac{2}{6}(-4x + 3) + 9\right]
Solution:
Simplify inside the brackets and substitute x=2x = 2:
26(4(2)+3)+9=26(8+3)+9=26(5)+9.\frac{2}{6}(-4(2) + 3) + 9 = \frac{2}{6}(-8 + 3) + 9 = \frac{2}{6}(-5) + 9.
=106+9=53+9=5+273=223.= -\frac{10}{6} + 9 = -\frac{5}{3} + 9 = \frac{-5 + 27}{3} = \frac{22}{3}.
The limit is:
223.\boxed{\frac{22}{3}}.


Problem 14:

limx5[log4(x+7)log4(x+1)]\lim_{x \to 5} \left[\log_4(x + 7) - \log_4(x + 1)\right]
Solution:
Use the logarithmic property logb(m)logb(n)=logb(mn)\log_b(m) - \log_b(n) = \log_b\left(\frac{m}{n}\right):
log4(x+7)log4(x+1)=log4(x+7x+1).\log_4(x + 7) - \log_4(x + 1) = \log_4\left(\frac{x + 7}{x + 1}\right).
Substitute x=5x = 5:
log4(5+75+1)=log4(126)=log4(2).\log_4\left(\frac{5 + 7}{5 + 1}\right) = \log_4\left(\frac{12}{6}\right) = \log_4(2).
The limit is:
log4(2).\boxed{\log_4(2)}.
