Answer:

a. 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

$\lim_{x \to 2} \frac{x-2}{x^2-4}$

Factor the denominator using difference of two squares.

$\lim_{x \to 2} \frac{x-2}{(x-2)(x+2)}$

Cancel out common factors;

$\lim_{x \to 2} \frac{1}{(x+2)}$

We plug in 2 to get

$\lim_{x \to 2} \frac{1}{(x+2)}=\frac{1}{2+2}$

$\lim_{x \to 2} \frac{1}{(x+2)}=\frac{1}{4}=0.25$
