Step 2.1

Split the limit using the Sum of Limits Rule on the limit as $x$ approaches $2$ .

$lim_{x \to 2^{+}} 1 + lim_{x \to 2^{+}} 3 x$

Step 2.2

Evaluate the limit of $1$ which is constant as $x$ approaches $2$ .

$1 + lim_{x \to 2^{+}} 3 x$

Step 2.3

Move the term $3$ outside of the limit because it is constant with respect to $x$ .

$1 + 3 lim_{x \to 2^{+}} x$

Step 3

Evaluate the limit of $x$ by plugging in $2$ for $x$ .

$1 + 3 \cdot 2$

Step 4
