I was given the following expression and had to find the limit as: $ x \rightarrow 1, x \rightarrow - 1, x \rightarrow \infty $ $ \lim_{x \to -1} \frac{x^2 +3x +2}{x^2 -1} = \lim_{x \to -1} \frac{\frac{x^2}{x^2} + \frac{3x}{x^2} + \frac{2}{x^2}}{\frac{x^2}{x^2} - \frac{1}{x^2}} = \lim_{x \to -1} \frac{\frac{1}{1} + 0 + 0}{\frac{1}{1} - 0} = \lim_{x \to -1} \frac{1}{1} = 1 $
So for $-1$, I got 1. However the text book says it's $1/2$. I tried pluging in -1 but I don't get $1/2$, no matter how I shift this.
