Proof that a limit is true

102 Views Asked by At

In my assignment I have to prove the following limit, by definition:

$$\lim _{x \to 2}\sqrt{3x-2}=2 $$

I have made some calculations trying to prove it, and I've made some way but I'm afraid I'm wrong somewhere. Your help is needed, please.

$$|\sqrt{3x-2}-2|$$ $$=\frac{|(\sqrt{3x-2}|-2)*|(\sqrt{3x-2}+2)}{\sqrt{3x-2}+2}$$ $$=\frac{|3x-6|}{\sqrt{3x-2}+2}$$ $$=\frac{3|x-2|}{\sqrt{3x-2}+2}<\frac{3|x-2|}{\frac{1}{3}}=9*|x-2|$$

Now we choose $$\delta=\frac{\epsilon}{9}$$

And say that $$9*|x-2|<\delta$$ $$|x-2|<\frac{\epsilon}{9}<\epsilon$$

And we proved what's needed.

Is my solution correct?
