Answer:

-1/20

Explanation:

As x approaches c,

g(x) 1/5

------ = ------------ = -1/20 (matches last of the four given possible answers)

f(x) -4

Answer:


\displaystyle (-1)/(20)

General Formulas and Concepts:

Calculus

Limit Property [Division]:
\displaystyle \lim_(x \to c) (f(x))/(g(x)) = ( \lim_(x \to c) f(x))/( \lim_(x \to c) g(x))

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify


\displaystyle \lim_(x \to c) f(x) = -4


\displaystyle \lim_(x \to c) g(x) = (1)/(5)

Step 2: Solve

  1. Substitute in limits [Limit Property - Division]:
    \displaystyle \lim_(x \to c) (g(x))/(f(x)) = ( (1)/(5) )/( -4 )
  2. Simplify:
    \displaystyle \lim_(x \to c) (g(x))/(f(x)) = (-1)/(20)
