A student is trying to solve this problem limx0sin5xx\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\sin 5x}{x}. Here is what this student did Step 1: limx0sin5xx(55)\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\sin 5x}{x} \left( \frac{5}{5} \right) Step 2: limx05sin5x5x\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{5 \sin 5x}{5x} Step 3: 51=55 \cdot 1 = 5 Is this student correct?

A pair of students are trying to solve this problem: limx0sec(2x)\lim_{x \to 0} \sec(2x). The following are the steps the students follow: Step 1: limx0sec(2x)=limx0seclimx0(2x)\lim_{x \to 0} \sec(2x) = \lim_{x \to 0} \sec \cdot \lim_{x \to 0} (2x) Step 2 = 000 \cdot 0 Step 3 = 00 Are the students correct?
