Final answer:

To find the limit of h(x) as x approaches a certain value, substitute the expression for f(x) into the expression for h(x), simplify the expression, and evaluate the limit as x approaches the given value.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the limit of h(x) as x approaches a certain value, we need to evaluate the expression f(x)/x as x gets closer and closer to that value.

  1. First, substitute the given expression for f(x) into the expression for h(x): h(x) = (8x^2 + 2x + 6)/x.
  2. Simplify the expression by dividing each term in the numerator by x: h(x) = 8x + 2 + 6/x.
  3. As x approaches a certain value, the term 6/x becomes smaller and smaller, approaching 0. Thus, the limit of h(x) as x approaches a certain value will be equal to 8x + 2.
