If lim f(x)=5,and lim f(x)=6, then lim f(x)=

hartnn (hartnn):

where does x approach to in all these cases ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

F(x)=5 2^- and f(x)=6 is 2^+

hartnn (hartnn):

right, ok. so lim x-> 2 f(x) will be defined if and only if lim x->2- f(x) and lim x-> 2+ f(x) are EQUAL. if they are not equal, then lim x->2 f(x) does not exist :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im confused

hartnn (hartnn):

what confusion you have ? lim x->2- f(x) is LEFT HAND LIMIT lim x-> 2+ f(x) is RIGHT HAND LIMIT if left limit NOT = right limit, then the limit at that point does not exist.

oh i get it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you

hartnn (hartnn):

most welcome ^_^
