Use the graph to determine each limit.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i) \[\lim_{x \rightarrow 2^{-}} f(x)\] ii) \[\lim_{x \rightarrow 2^{+}} f(x)\] iii) \[\lim_{x \rightarrow 2} f(x)\] iv) \[\lim_{x \rightarrow 2^{-}} f(x)\] v) \[\lim_{x \rightarrow 0^{+}} f(x)\] vi) \[\lim_{x \rightarrow 0} f(x)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ERRATA: iv) \[\lim_{x \rightarrow 0^{-}} f(x)\]

OpenStudy (amistre64):

lets call the left graph "f(x)" and the right graph "g(x)" that way we can tell what were talking about.... now are we supposed to take the specified limit as it pertains to both graphs individually?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we must answer all for each graph.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

so the limits are 2 from the right, 2 from the left, 0 from the right, 0 from the left, and at 0 and at 2..if I read this correctly

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, that's correct.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

a = f(x) lim{2+} = +infinity; lim{2-} = -infinity; lim{2} = not exist.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

a = f(x) lim{0+} = 0; lim{0+} is undefined, no graph there; lim{0} = 0 maybe...but hard to tell since the 0- is gone....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you mean, lim{0-} is undefined, right?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

umm.... yeah, thats what I meant :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh! thanks! I do not know how to define it. let's b.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

b=g(x) lim{2+} = -1; lim{2+} =-1 ; lim{2} = -1 lim{0+}=1; lim{0-}=undefined; lim{0}=1 I would assume since it is a solid "dot"

OpenStudy (amistre64):

did it again didnt i....lim{2-} = -1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha. np. btw, thanks!

OpenStudy (amistre64):

youre welcome :)
