Answer:

ln(5/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The desired limit represents the logarithm of an indeterminate form, so L'Hopital's rule could be applied. However, the logarithm can be simplified to a form that is not indeterminate.

<h3>Limit</h3>

We can cancel factors of (x-1), which are what make the expression indeterminate at x=1. Then the limit can be evaluated directly by substituting x=1.

$\diplaystyle \lim\limits_{x\to1}{(\ln(x^5-1)-\ln(x^3-1))}=\lim\limits_{x\to1}\ln{\left(\dfrac{x^5-1}{x^3-1}\right)}\\\\=\lim\limits_{x\to1}\ln\left(\dfrac{x^4+x^3+x^2+x+1}{x^2+x+1}\right)=\ln{\dfrac{5}{3}}$
