a, \(lim\dfrac{\sqrt{2n+1}}{\sqrt{8n}+1}=lim\dfrac{\sqrt{n}.\sqrt{2+\dfrac{1}{n}}}{\sqrt{n}\left(\sqrt{8}+\dfrac{1}{n}\right)}=\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{8}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\)
b, \(lim\dfrac{3n+\sqrt{n^2+n-5}}{-2n}\)
\(=lim\left(\dfrac{3}{2}-\dfrac{\sqrt{n^2+n-5}}{2n}\right)\)
\(=lim\left(\dfrac{3}{2}-\dfrac{n\sqrt{1+\dfrac{1}{n}-\dfrac{5}{n^2}}}{2n}\right)=\dfrac{3}{2}-\dfrac{1}{2}=1\)
