Substitute value of x: Substitute the value of x approaching 3 into the expression 2x−5−4 to see if the limit can be directly calculated.Calculation: 2⋅3−5−4=6−5−4=1−4=−4
Calculate limit: Since the substitution in Step 1 did not lead to an indeterminate form or infinity, the limit exists and is equal to the calculated value.
