To tackle the first limit, we see that as \( x \) approaches 1, the expression \(-4\) remains constant and does not depend on \( x \). Therefore, the limit evaluates straightforwardly to \(-4\). For the second limit, as \( x \) approaches 1 in the expression \(\frac{1}{x+2}\), you simply substitute \( x = 1 \) into the function. This gives us \(\frac{1}{1+2} = \frac{1}{3}\). So, the limit is \(\frac{1}{3}\).
