I need help with limits!!! does anyone know a easy method????

Answer 1

Hoot! You just asked your first question! Hang tight while I find people to answer it for you. You can thank people who give you good answers by clicking the 'Good Answer' button on the right!

Answer 2

sometimes they are easy, some times they are hard, and sometimes they are almost impossible. depends on the limit (sometimes they don't even exist)

Answer 3

heres an example lim f(x) as x approaches two is five?

Answer 4

?

Answer 5

fill in a hole maybe

Answer 6

are you supposed to prove that?

Answer 7

do you know what f(x) is?

Answer 8

polynomials are simple; they have no domain restrictions and the limit = f(x)

Answer 9

f(L) lol

Answer 10

are you supposed to write the definition of what that really means in math?

Answer 11

yes..it aske me is it possible for this statement to be true and yet f(2) =3? explain

Answer 12

yes it is

Answer 13

im like so lost smh

Answer 14

f(2) can be three depending on the equation that defines it

Answer 15

the limit of the function is independent of the value of the function at a point

Answer 16

the limit is defined if the left and right approach the same number

Answer 17

how do you guys remember this stuff???

Answer 18

that is why there is a term "limit" if the limit was always the value you would just say f(2) not "limit as x approaches 2"

Answer 19

i have it tatted on my inner thigh ;)

Answer 20

don't forget you can define a function any way you like. i could say


\[f(x)=2x+1\] for all x except 2, and f(2) = 3

Answer 21

but two doesnt aproach 3 from the left right????? only on the right side

Answer 22

lol @ inner thigh

Answer 23

so in my example the limit as x approaches 2 is 5, but the value at 2 is 3 because i said so!

Answer 24

o.k then...thanx satellite
