Solution
`lim_(x -> 7)[((root(3)(x) - root(3)(7))(root(3)(x) + root(3)(7)))/(x - 7)]`
= `lim_(x -> 7)[((x^(1/3) - 7^(1/3))(x^(1/3) + 7^(1/3)))/(x - 7)]`
= `lim_(x -> 7)[(x^(2/3) - 7^(2/3))/(x - 7)] ...[∵ (a – b)(a + b) = a^2 – b^2]`
= `2/3(7)^(2/3 - 1) ...[ therefore lim_(x -> "a") (x^"n" - "a"^"n")/(x - "a") = "na"^("n" - 1)]`
= `2/3(7)^(-1/3)`
= `2/3 × 1/7^(1/3)`
= `2/(3 (root(3)(7))`
