Với dãy số \(\left( {{x_n}} \right)\) bất kì \({x_n} > - 4\) và \({x_n} \to - 4,\) ta có:
\(\begin{array}{c}\mathop {\lim }\limits_{{x_n} \to - {4^ + }} \left( {\sqrt {{x_n} + 4} + {x_n}} \right) = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{{x_n} \to - {4^ + }} \sqrt {{x_n} + 4} + \mathop {\lim }\limits_{{x_n} \to - {4^ + }} {x_n} = \sqrt {\mathop {\lim }\limits_{{x_n} \to - {4^ + }} \left( {{x_n} + 4} \right)} + \left( { - 4} \right)\\ = \sqrt {\mathop {\lim }\limits_{{x_n} \to - {4^ + }} {x_n} + 4} - 4 = \sqrt { - 4 + 4} - 4 = - 4\end{array}\)
Vậy \(\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to - {4^ + }} \left( {\sqrt {x + 4} + x} \right) = - 4\)
