Find the limit of the given function

Find the value of the following limit.

    \[ \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{x^2 - 4x + 3}{2x^2 - 13x + 21}. \]


We apply L’Hopital’s rule,

    \begin{align*}  \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{x^2 - 4x + 3}{2x^2 - 13x + 21} &= \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{2x - 4}{4x - 13} \\[9pt]  &= -2. \end{align*}

Since this limit exists, the application of L’Hopital’s was justified.
