Explanation Calculation: Factorize the numerator part 3 x 2 − 2 x − 21 and obtain the factors. 3 x 2 − 2 x − 21 = 3 x 2 + 9 x − 7 x − 21 = 3 x ( x + 3 ) − 7 ( x + 3 ) = ( 3 x − 7 ) ( x + 3 ) Thus, the factors are ( 3 x − 7 ) and ( x + 3 ) . Substitute x = 3 in lim x → 3 3 x 2 − 2 x − 21 x − 3 and obtain the value of that
