A. x²-2x-35 The limits lim X-7 X-7 and lim (x+5) equal the same number when evaluated using X-7 direct substitution. B. Since each limit approaches 7, it follows that the limits are equal. C. The numerator of the expression X-2x-35 X-7 simplifies to x + 5 for all x, so the limits are equal. D. Since x²-2x-35 X-7 = x + 5 whenever x 7, it follows that the two expressions evaluate to the same number as x approaches 7. Now evaluate the limit. x²-2x-35 lim X-7 X-7 = (Simplify your answer.)arrow_forwardA function f is even if f(x) = f(x) for all x in the domain of f.
