Learn how to solve limits by direct substitution problems step by step online. Find the limit (x)->(29/10)lim((x^2-8x+15)/(x-3)). Simplifying. Evaluate the limit \lim_{x\to\frac{29}{10}}\left(\frac{x^2-8x+15}{x-3}\right) by replacing all occurrences of x by 2.9. Subtract the values \frac{29}{10} and -3. Multiply -8 times \frac{29}{10}.

Final Answer

$-\frac{21}{10}$

Exact Numeric Answer

$-2.1$
