Sum

Solution

Put x = 2 + h. Then x – 2 = h and as x → 2, h → 0.

∴ `lim_(x -> 2) [(log x - log 2)/(x - 2)]`

= `lim_("h" -> 0) [(log(2 + "h") - log2)/"h"]`

= `lim_("h" -> 0) (log ((2 + "h")/2))/"h"`

= `lim_("h" -> 0) (log(1 + "h"/2))/(("h"/2) xx 2)`

= `1/2 lim_("h" -> 0) (log(1 + "h"/2))/(("h"/2))`

= `1/2 xx 1   ...[because "h" -> 0, "h"/2 -> 0  "and" lim_(x -> 0) (log(1 + x))/x = 1]`

= `1/2`
