Problem Breakdown and Strategy
Given limit: L=limx→∞(3x2+5x+4)(3x+2)x(2x2−3x+5)(3x−1)2x
Rewrite the denominator's radical part: (3x+2)x=(3x+2)2x
Separate the expression into algebraic and exponential components: L=limx→∞[3x2+5x+42x2−3x+5]×limx→∞[(3x+2)2x(3x−1)2x]
Evaluating the Algebraic Part
Evaluate Part 1: L1=limx→∞3x2+5x+42x2−3x+5
Divide numerator and denominator by x2: L1=limx→∞3+x5+x242−x3+x25
As x→∞, terms with x1 and x21 approach 0: L1=3+0+02−0+0=32
Simplifying the Exponential Part
Evaluate Part 2: L2=limx→∞(3x+23x−1)2x
Check the form: As x→∞, 3x+23x−1→1 and 2x→∞
This is the 1∞ indeterminate form.
Applying the 1∞ Formula
Use the formula: limx→af(x)g(x)=elimx→ag(x)(f(x)−1)
Substitute f(x)=3x+23x−1 and g(x)=2x:
L2=elimx→∞2x(3x+23x−1−1)
Simplifying the Exponent
Simplify the term inside the limit: 3x+23x−1−(3x+2)=3x+23x−1−3x−2=3x+2−3
The exponent becomes: limx→∞2x⋅3x+2−3=limx→∞6x+4−3x
Calculating the Final Exponent Value
Evaluate the limit in the exponent: limx→∞6x+4−3x=−63=−21
So, L2=e−21=e1
Combining the Results
Combine the results: L=L1×L2
L=32×e1=3e2
The correct option is (3).

The Symphony of Limits
A Journey Through Complexity
Welcome, fellow traveler on the path to JEE excellence. Today, we are going to dismantle a problem that, at first glance, looks like a chaotic mess of variables and powers.
It is the kind of problem that makes your heart skip a beat—not because it is impossible, but because it is intimidating. But remember, in the world of mathematics, complexity is often just a disguise for simplicity. Let us peel back the layers of this limit together.
Phase 1
The Art of Decomposition
We are presented with the limit:
L=x→∞lim(3x2+5x+4)(3x+2)x(2x2−3x+5)(3x−1)2x
When you see a monster like this, your first instinct might be to panic. Don't. Instead, look for the structure.
We have a product of terms in the numerator and a product in the denominator. The square root in the denominator, (3x+2)x, is simply (3x+2)2x.
By grouping the algebraic terms and the exponential terms, we can rewrite the limit as a product of two smaller, much friendlier limits:
By splitting the problem into L1 and L2, we have already won half the battle. We have transformed one terrifying problem into two manageable tasks.
Phase 2
Taming the Algebraic Beast
Let us tackle L1=limx→∞3x2+5x+42x2−3x+5. This is a classic rational function.
As x grows to infinity, the terms with x2 dominate the behavior of the function. To see this clearly, we divide every term in the numerator and denominator by x2:
L1=x→∞lim3+x5+x242−x3+x25
As x approaches infinity, any term with x in the denominator—like x3 or x24—vanishes into zero. We are left with the elegant ratio of the leading coefficients: L1=32.
Phase 3
The 1∞ Mystery
Now, we turn our attention to the exponential part: L2=limx→∞(3x+23x−1)2x.
First, check the form. As x→∞, the base 3x+23x−1 approaches 1, and the exponent 2x approaches ∞. This is the famous 1∞ indeterminate form.
Whenever you see this, you must immediately reach for the standard identity:
x→alimf(x)g(x)=elimx→ag(x)(f(x)−1)
Let us apply this. Here, f(x)=3x+23x−1 and g(x)=2x. The exponent of our e becomes:
x→∞lim2x(3x+23x−1−1)
Focus on the term inside the parenthesis. Finding a common denominator, we get 3x+23x−1−(3x+2), which simplifies beautifully to 3x+2−3.
Now, multiply this by the exponent 2x:
x→∞lim2x⋅3x+2−3=x→∞lim6x+4−3x
Again, we are looking at a limit at infinity. Divide by x, and we get 6−3=−21. Thus, L2=e−21, or e1.
Phase 4
The Grand Synthesis
We have our two pieces. L1=32 and L2=e1. Multiplying them together gives us the final answer:
L=32×e1=3e2
Look at that. From a complex, intimidating expression, we have arrived at a concise, elegant result. This is the beauty of mathematics.
It rewards patience, structure, and the courage to break down the impossible into the possible. Keep practicing, keep questioning, and most importantly, keep falling in love with the process.
