question 209

Multiple Choice

Graphically approximate the limit (if it exists) by using a graphing utility to graph the function. $\lim _ { x \rightarrow 5 ^ { - } } \frac { x - 5 } { x ^ { 2 } - 25 }$

• A) \(\lim _ { x \rightarrow 5 ^ { - } } \frac { x - 5 } { x ^ { 2 } - 25 } = - \frac { 1 } { 25 }\)
• B) \(\lim _ { x \rightarrow 5 ^ { - } } \frac { x - 5 } { x ^ { 2 } - 25 } = \frac { 1 } { 10 }\)
• C) \(\lim _ { x \rightarrow 5 ^ { - } } \frac { x - 5 } { x ^ { 2 } - 25 } = \frac { 1 } { 25 }\)
• D) \(\lim _ { x \rightarrow 5 ^ { - } } \frac { x - 5 } { x ^ { 2 } - 25 } = \frac { 1 } { 11 }\)
• E) \(\lim _ { x \rightarrow 5 ^ { - } } \frac { x - 5 } { x ^ { 2 } - 25 } = - \frac { 1 } { 10 }\)
