Since the function is defined at 3, that is exists, just plug in 3 and do the arithmetic.

My dear visitor,

your post is written INCORRECTLY.


Such problems MUST contain the part " x ---> to something",
which ABSENTS in your post.


Therefore, your post is UNREADABLE.

After spending significant time for guessing,  I finally  DECIPHERED  what you were going to ask:


            Find   lim  (x-->3)  {sqrt(x^2+7) + 5}.


The  ANSWER  is   sqrt%283%5E2%2B7%29+%2B+5 = sqrt%2816%29+%2B+5 = 4 + 5 = 9.



If you see the formula, typographically printed in front of your eyes,
then the time to solve it and to answer is about 4 seconds.


So, I really do not understand the reason why you posted it to the forum . . . .



If the student can not answer this question in  4  seconds,  having the formula typographically printed

in front of his  (or her)  eyes,  such a person does not deserve to carry a honor title/degree of a  Calculus student . . .


In  Calculus,  this question is the same as   1 + 2 = 3   in a kindergarten.
