Answer is (2) i.e. #1/sqrt2#

Explanation:

#lim_(x->3)(sqrt(3x)-3)/((sqrt(2x-4)-sqrt2)#

As when #x->3#, both numerator and denominator approach #0#, we can use L'ospital's rule and hence the limit is equal to

#lim_(x->3)((d(sqrt(3x)-3))/(dx))/((d(sqrt(2x-4)-sqrt2))/(dx))#

= #lim_(x->3)(sqrt3/(2sqrtx))/(2/(2sqrt(2x-4)))#

= #(sqrt3/(2sqrt3))/(2/(2sqrt(2*3-4)))=sqrt3/(2sqrt3)xx(2sqrt(6-4))/2#

= #sqrt2/2#

= #1/sqrt2#

Hence answer is (2).
