1. The problem is to find the limit $$\lim_{x\to 1}(5 - 4x)$$. 2. Recall that if the function is continuous at $x=1$, the limit can be found by direct substitution. 3. Substitute $x = 1$ into the expression: $$5 - 4(1) = 5 - 4 = 1$$ 4. Therefore, the limit is $$1$$. Final answer: $$\lim_{x\to 1}(5 - 4x) = 1$$
