To simplify the expression (x^2 + 5x + 4) / (x^2 - 16), we can factor both the numerator and the denominator. The numerator can be factored as (x + 4)(x + 1), and the denominator can be factored as (x + 4)(x - 4).
Next, we can cancel out the common factor of (x + 4) in both the numerator and the denominator.
After canceling out the common factor, the simplified expression becomes (x + 1) / (x - 4).

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
