$$\frac{1}{z}\left(\frac{1}{z-2} - \frac{1}{z-1}\right)= \frac{1}{z}\left(\frac{1}{-2}\cdot\frac{1}{1-\frac{z}{2}} - \frac{1}{z}\cdot\frac{1}{1-\frac{1}{z}}\right)$$
For ##1<|z|<2##, we have, ##\left|\frac{1}{z}\right|<1## and ##\left|\frac{z}{2}\right|<1##. So you can now use the formula for...

Look, if you put ##x=0##, you have ##\frac{0}{0}## form [##\int_0^x e^{-t^2}dt## is zero when ##x=0##]. So in that case, you cannot conclude that the limit is infinity.
Now, look at the figure:
If ##x\rightarrow 0##, what will be ##\frac{\int_0^x e^{-t^2}dt}{x}=\frac{Area}{x}## ? [Use...
