Limit Exponential 1Dbe2A
1. **State the problem:** Find the limit $$\lim_{x \to \infty} \left(\frac{3x - 2}{3x + 9}\right)^{3 - 11x}$$.
2. **Rewrite the expression inside the limit:** Simplify the fraction inside the parentheses:
$$\frac{3x - 2}{3x + 9} = \frac{3x(1 - \frac{2}{3x})}{3x(1 + \frac{3}{x})} = \frac{1 - \frac{2}{3x}}{1 + \frac{3}{x}}.$$
3. **Analyze the base as $x \to \infty$:**
As $x \to \infty$, $\frac{2}{3x} \to 0$ and $\frac{3}{x} \to 0$, so the base approaches:
$$\frac{1 - 0}{1 + 0} = 1.$$
4. **Rewrite the limit in exponential form:**
Since the base approaches 1 and the exponent tends to $-\infty$ (because $3 - 11x \to -\infty$), this is an indeterminate form of type $1^{\infty}$.
We use the standard limit formula:
$$\lim_{x \to \infty} (1 + a_x)^{b_x} = e^{\lim_{x \to \infty} a_x b_x}$$
if the limit on the right exists.
Set:
$$a_x = \frac{3x - 2}{3x + 9} - 1 = \frac{3x - 2 - (3x + 9)}{3x + 9} = \frac{-11}{3x + 9}$$
Exponent:
$$b_x = 3 - 11x.$$
5. **Calculate the product $a_x b_x$:**
$$a_x b_x = \frac{-11}{3x + 9} (3 - 11x) = \frac{-11(3 - 11x)}{3x + 9} = \frac{-33 + 121x}{3x + 9}.$$
6. **Find the limit of $a_x b_x$ as $x \to \infty$:**
Divide numerator and denominator by $x$:
$$\lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{-33 + 121x}{3x + 9} = \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{121 - \frac{33}{x}}{3 + \frac{9}{x}} = \frac{121}{3}.$$
7. **Apply the exponential limit:**
$$\lim_{x \to \infty} \left(\frac{3x - 2}{3x + 9}\right)^{3 - 11x} = e^{\frac{121}{3}}.$$
**Final answer:**
$$\boxed{e^{\frac{121}{3}}}.$$
