<s>[INST] Help Evaluating $\lim_{x \to \infty} \sqrt{x + \sqrt{x + \sqrt{x}}} - \sqrt{x}$ Does anyone know how to evaluate the following limit?
$$
\lim_{x \to \infty} \sqrt{x + \sqrt{x + \sqrt{x}}} - \sqrt{x}
$$
The answer is $\frac{1}{2}$, but I want to see a step by step solution if possible.

\begin{align}
\ \lim_{x\rightarrow\infty}\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x}}}-\sqrt{x} &= \lim_{x\rightarrow\infty} \left( \sqrt{x+\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x}}}-\sqrt{x} \right) \cdot \frac{\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x}}}+\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x}}}+\sqrt{x}}\\
\ &= \lim_{x\rightarrow\infty} \frac{x + \sqrt{x+\sqrt{x}}- x}{\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x}}}+\sqrt{x}}\\
\ &= \lim_{x\rightarrow\infty} \frac{\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x}}}{\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x}}}+\sqrt{x}} \\
\ &= \lim_{x\rightarrow\infty} \frac{\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x}}}{\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x+\sqrt{x}}}+\sqrt{x}} \cdot \frac{1/\sqrt{x}}{1/\sqrt{x}} \\
\ &= \lim_{x\rightarrow\infty} \frac{\sqrt{1+\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}}}{\sqrt{1+\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{x\sqrt{x}}}+1} \\
\ &= \frac{\sqrt{1}}{\sqrt{1}+1} \\
\ &= \frac{1}{2} \\
\end{align}
