Evidence boundary

This page works the limit published as exercise 84 in the OpenStax Calculus Volume 1 §2.3 exercise set, whose instruction is to use the limit laws and to justify each step by naming the appropriate limit law(s). The laws listed follow that section: sum, difference, constant multiple, product, quotient, power, root, and the basic limit results lim x = a and lim c = c. The order in which the laws are applied here is one valid order, not the only one. The page does not claim the problem comes from any other worksheet, textbook or answer key, and it does not extend the computation to a general family of limits.
