Answer:
A) -2
Step-by-step explanation:
The form is indeterminate at x=0, so L'Hopital's rule applies. The resulting form is also indeterminate at x=0, so a second application is required.
Let f(x) = x·sin(x); g(x) = cos(x) -1
Then f'(x) = sin(x) +x·cos(x), and g'(x) = -sin(x).
We still have f'(0)/g'(0) = 0/0 . . . . . indeterminate.
__
Differentiating numerator and denominator a second time gives ...
f''(x) = 2cos(x) -sin(x)
g''(x) = -cos(x)
Then f''(0)/g''(0) = 2/-1 = -2

I like to start by graphing the expression to see if that is informative as to what the limit should be. The graph suggests the limit is -2, as we found.
