1. Problem Description

We are asked to find the limit of the expression 2x2x214x3x2+2\frac{2x - \sqrt{2x^2 - 1}}{4x - 3\sqrt{x^2 + 2}} as xx approaches infinity.

2. Solution Steps

To solve this limit, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by xx. Note that for x>0x > 0, x2=x\sqrt{x^2} = x.
limx2x2x214x3x2+2=limx2xx2(21x2)4x3x2(1+2x2)=limx2xx21x24x3x1+2x2\lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{2x - \sqrt{2x^2 - 1}}{4x - 3\sqrt{x^2 + 2}} = \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{2x - \sqrt{x^2(2 - \frac{1}{x^2})}}{4x - 3\sqrt{x^2(1 + \frac{2}{x^2})}} = \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{2x - x\sqrt{2 - \frac{1}{x^2}}}{4x - 3x\sqrt{1 + \frac{2}{x^2}}}
Now, we can factor out xx from both the numerator and the denominator:
=limxx(221x2)x(431+2x2)=limx221x2431+2x2= \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{x(2 - \sqrt{2 - \frac{1}{x^2}})}{x(4 - 3\sqrt{1 + \frac{2}{x^2}})} = \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{2 - \sqrt{2 - \frac{1}{x^2}}}{4 - 3\sqrt{1 + \frac{2}{x^2}}}
As xx \to \infty, 1x20\frac{1}{x^2} \to 0 and 2x20\frac{2}{x^2} \to 0. Therefore,
=220431+0=22431=2243=221=22= \frac{2 - \sqrt{2 - 0}}{4 - 3\sqrt{1 + 0}} = \frac{2 - \sqrt{2}}{4 - 3\sqrt{1}} = \frac{2 - \sqrt{2}}{4 - 3} = \frac{2 - \sqrt{2}}{1} = 2 - \sqrt{2}

3. Final Answer

222 - \sqrt{2}
