[Math] Please help me solve these limits…

limits

So, I need you to solve one of these limits for me, so I can see how it's done, so I can do the rest myself.

OK, one. Here comes: $$ \frac{\sqrt{u}-\sqrt{v}}{\sqrt[3]{u}-\sqrt[3]{v}} = \frac{u-v}{\sqrt{u}+\sqrt{v}}\cdot\frac{\sqrt[3]{u^2}+\sqrt[3]{uv}+\sqrt[3]{v^2}}{u-v}= \frac{\sqrt[3]{u^2}+\sqrt[3]{uv}+\sqrt[3]{v^2}}{\sqrt{u}+\sqrt{v}}\underset{u,v\to1}{\longrightarrow}\frac{1+1+1}{1+1}. $$ Equivalently, when $x\to0$, $(1\pm x)^a=1\pm ax+o(x)$ hence $$ \frac{(1+x)^a-(1-x)^a}{(1+x)^b-(1-x)^b}=\frac{1+ax-(1-ax)+o(x)}{1+bx-(1-bx)+o(x)}=\frac{2ax+o(x)}{2bx+o(x)}\underset{x\to0}{\longrightarrow}\frac{a}b. $$
