Evaluate the Limit limit as x approaches 5 of x

Problem

(lim_x→5)(x)

Solution

1. Identify the type of function. The function ƒ(x)=x is a polynomial function (specifically a linear function).

2. Apply the property of limits for polynomials. Polynomials are continuous everywhere, meaning the limit as x approaches a value a is simply the function evaluated at a

3. Substitute the value x=5 into the expression.

Final Answer

(lim_x→5)(x)=5
