Answer: (C) 32\frac{3}{2}

Write the limit as e3x−13x⋅2xsin⁡2x⋅3x2x\dfrac{e^{3x}-1}{3x}\cdot\dfrac{2x}{\sin2x}\cdot\dfrac{3x}{2x}. The first two factors tend to 11 by the standard limits eu−1u→1\dfrac{e^u-1}{u}\to1 and sin⁡uu→1\dfrac{\sin u}{u}\to1, leaving 32\dfrac32. L'Hospital's rule gives the same: 3e3x2cos⁡2x→32\dfrac{3e^{3x}}{2\cos2x}\to\dfrac32.
