Identify Problem Type: Identify the type of limit problem.We are dealing with a rational function where both the numerator and the denominator are polynomials. As x approaches 0, both the numerator and the denominator approach 0, which is an indeterminate form 0/0. We need to simplify the expression or use L'Hôpital's Rule to find the limit.
Simplify by Factoring: Simplify the expression by factoring if possible.We can factor out an x from both the numerator and the denominator to simplify the expression.3x2+2x4x3−2x2+x=x(3x+2)x(4x2−2x+1)Now we can cancel out the common factor of x from the numerator and the denominator, provided x is not equal to 0.3x+24x2−2x+1
Evaluate Limit: Evaluate the limit of the simplified expression as x approaches 0.limx→03x+24x2−2x+1Substitute x=0 into the simplified expression.3(0)+24(0)2−2(0)+1=21
State Final Answer: State the final answer.The limit of the function (4x3−2x2+x)/(3x2+2x) as x approaches 0 is 1/2.
