8 votes 8 votes Is there a number $b$ such that $\displaystyle\lim _{x \rightarrow-2} \frac{b x^2+15 x+15+b}{x^2+x-2}$ exists? If so, find the value of $b$ and the value of the limit. $-1$ $-2$ $1$ There is no such $b$ for that above limit exist Calculus goclasses2025_csda_wq8 goclasses calculus limits 2-marks + – GO Classes asked May 24, 2023 • retagged Jun 12 by GO Classes GO Classes 171 views answer comment Share Follow See all 0 reply Please log in or register to add a comment.

Thus we solve $4 b-30+15+b=0$ to obtain $b=3. \displaystyle\lim _{x \rightarrow-2} \frac{3 x^2+15 x+18}{x^2+x-2}=-1$.
