The answer is -40
-2(12-2(-4))
-2(12+8)
-2x20
-2x20 = -40
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
plus 18 and subtract 4
Using perfect squares simplification, it is found that the value of the desired limit is of -4.
<h3>When is a limit?</h3>
It is the value of a function as x approach
In this problem, the limit we want to find is given by:

If we just replace x by -2, we end with an undetermined limit, as we have 0/0.
However, the perfect square simplification states that:
a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b).
Hence:
x² - 4 = (x + 2)(x - 2).
Then:

Hence, the value of the desired limit is of -4.
