A solution for a limit












1












$begingroup$


What do you think about my solution on this limit:
$lim_{xto 0}frac{2x-sin(2x)}{x^3}=frac{4}{3}$
We make the substitution $x=3y$
$$lim_{xrightarrow 0}frac{2x-sin 2x}{x^{3}}=lim_{yrightarrow 0}frac{6y-sin 6y}{27y^{3}}=lim_{yrightarrow 0}frac{6y-3sin 2y}{27y^{3}}+lim_{yrightarrow 0}frac{4(sin 2y)^{3}}{27{y^{3}}}$$
We get
$$l=frac{3}{27}l+frac{32}{27}$$
and
$$l=frac{4}{3}$$

    You did not prove that there was a limit. It is fine apart from that.

This looks fine, except that you didn't prove your original limit exists. But this is a rather complicated way to derive this limit, you could have simply used L'Hospital's rule twice, or a simple Taylor expansion in the form $sin(2x) = 2x - frac{(2x)^3}{6} + o(x^3)$.
