lim(x→2) (x³ − 8) / (x² − 4) equals:

A0
B3
C2
D4
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. 3
1. x³ − 8 = (x − 2)(x² + 2x + 4); x² − 4 = (x − 2)(x + 2). 2. Cancel (x − 2): expression = (x² + 2x + 4)/(x + 2) for x ≠ 2. 3. Plug in x = 2: (4 + 4 + 4)/(2 + 2) = 12/4 = 3. _Source: NCERT Class 11 Maths Ch 13 §13.2 Algebraic Limits_
