Limit Cube Root B1A731
1. **State the problem:** Find the limit $$\lim_{x \to 3} \frac{\sqrt[3]{27x - 81}}{x^2 - 2x - 3}$$.
2. **Analyze the expression:** The numerator is the cube root of $$27x - 81$$ and the denominator is $$x^2 - 2x - 3$$.
3. **Simplify inside the cube root:**
$$27x - 81 = 27(x - 3)$$.
4. **Factor the denominator:**
$$x^2 - 2x - 3 = (x - 3)(x + 1)$$.
5. **Rewrite the limit:**
$$\lim_{x \to 3} \frac{\sqrt[3]{27(x - 3)}}{(x - 3)(x + 1)} = \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{\sqrt[3]{27} \sqrt[3]{x - 3}}{(x - 3)(x + 1)} = \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{3 \sqrt[3]{x - 3}}{(x - 3)(x + 1)}$$.
6. **Simplify the expression by canceling terms:**
We can write:
$$\frac{3 \sqrt[3]{x - 3}}{(x - 3)(x + 1)} = \frac{3 (x - 3)^{1/3}}{(x - 3)(x + 1)} = \frac{3}{(x + 1)} \cdot \frac{(x - 3)^{1/3}}{(x - 3)} = \frac{3}{(x + 1)} (x - 3)^{-2/3}$$.
7. **Evaluate the limit:**
As $$x \to 3$$, $$x + 1 \to 4$$ and $$ (x - 3)^{-2/3} \to \infty$$ because the exponent is negative and the base approaches zero.
Therefore,
$$\lim_{x \to 3} \frac{3}{4} (x - 3)^{-2/3} = \infty$$.
8. **Conclusion:** The limit diverges to infinity.
**Final answer:** $$\infty$$.
