무한대에서의 극한과 점근선

We have two terms, each getting extremely large. It's unclear at first what happens when we subtract them. To get this equation into another form, we multiply and divide by the conjugate, $\sqrt{x^2+5x}+\sqrt{x^2-x}$.

$$\begin{aligned} \lim_{x\rightarrow \infty}\left[\sqrt{x^2+5x}-\sqrt{x^2-x}\right] &=\lim_{x\rightarrow \infty}\left[\dfrac{(\sqrt{x^2+5x}-\sqrt{x^2-x})(\sqrt{x^2+5x}+\sqrt{x^2-x})}{\sqrt{x^2+5x}+\sqrt{x^2-x}}\right]\\ &= \lim_{x\rightarrow \infty}\dfrac{(x^2+5x)-(x^2-x)} {\sqrt{x^2+5x}+\sqrt{x^2-x}}\\ & = \lim_{x\rightarrow \infty}\dfrac{6x}{\sqrt{x^2+5x}+\sqrt{x^2-x}} \\ \text{Now we divide the numerator and denominator by $x$. In the case of the denominator, since $x>0$, $x=\sqrt{x^2}$.} \\ &= \lim_{x\rightarrow \infty}\dfrac{6(x)}{\sqrt{x^2}\sqrt{1+\frac{5}{x}}+\sqrt{x^2}\sqrt{1-\frac{1}{x}}} \\&= \lim_{x\rightarrow \infty}\dfrac{6(x)}{(x)\sqrt{1+\frac{5}{x}}+(x)\sqrt{1-\frac{1}{x}}} \\& = \lim_{x\rightarrow \infty}\dfrac{6}{\sqrt{1+\frac{5}{x}}+\sqrt{1-\frac{1}{x}}}\\ &=\frac{6}{\sqrt{1+0}+\sqrt{1-0}}= 3 \end{aligned}$$
