FIND THE LIMIT LIM l 7H l / H H->0- HINT: EVALUATE THE QUOTIENT FOR SOME NEGATIVE VALUES OF H CLOSE TO ZERO.

hero (hero):

\[\lim_{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{|7h|}{h}\] Is that it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

YES

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-7

hero (hero):

Basically, you have to split it into two, but if h is approaching zero, then that means the limit doesn't exist

hero (hero):

Because it will be approaching a different value from the left and a different value from the right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its -7

hero (hero):

Hmmm, okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think i see why too

hero (hero):

Why?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

H's cancel out leaving a 7 and then theres the negative sign given... idk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That limit doesn't exist, Hero is right.

hero (hero):

According to wolfram alpha (which is never wrong)... http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=limit+as+h+approaches+zero+of+%7C7h%7C%2Fh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh, wait, no, it's from the left, not the overall limit. -7 is right.

hero (hero):

Oh.... yeah, I just saw it too

hero (hero):

Good eye cinar

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is approaching to zero on the left

hero (hero):

Yeah, we know now...

hero (hero):
