Prove $\lim_{x\to 1} \frac{x+2}{x^2+1}=\frac{3}{2}$ The title is quite clear. I am required to prove $\lim_{x\to 1} \frac{x+2}{x^2+1}=\frac{3}{2}$ using the epsilon-delta definition of the limit.

Given any $\varepsilon \gt 0$, there exists a $\delta =$
Such that $0 \lt \lvert x-1 \rvert \lt \delta \Rightarrow \lvert\frac{x+2}{x^2+1} -\frac{3}{2} \rvert \lt\varepsilon$
$\frac{x+2}{x^2+1} -\frac{3}{2}= \frac{-3x^2+2x+1}{2(x^2+1)}$
I have managed to express both the numerator and the denominator as such
$-3x^2+2x+1 = -(x-1)(3x+1)\\
2(x^2+1) = 2x^2+2= 2(x-1)^2 + 4(x-1) +4$
Returning back to the fraction $\frac{-(x-1)(3x+1)}{2(x-1)^2 + 4(x-1) +4}$

I am unsure on how to continue and would really appreciate some guidance.

Your fraction, in absolute value, equals
$$\left|\frac{(x-1)(3x+1)}{2(x^2+1)} \right|<\left|\frac{(x-1)(3x+1)}{x^2} \right|.$$
Now, if $|x-1|<\delta$, then $|x|<\delta+1$. So if $\delta\leq1$, then $|x|<2$ and $|x^2|<4$. So if we choose $\delta=\min\{1,\frac{7\epsilon}{4}\}$, then the above inequality is less than $\epsilon$, which is what we wanted to show.
