Hey Huy c: What are you trying to determine? \[\Large\rm \lim_{x\to2}f(x)\]This? Or are we approaching it from a specific side?

zepdrix (zepdrix):

I meant 3, not 2 >.< sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\lim_{x \rightarrow 3}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

With a negative sign

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not in the front but it looks like 3^-

@zepdrix

zepdrix (zepdrix):

\[\Large\rm \lim_{x\to3^-}f(x)\]Limit from the negative side? Mmm k

zepdrix (zepdrix):

With limits, try to ignore the black dots. Pay attention to where the line is going.

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Check out where these pink arrows are pointing. See how we're getting closer and closer to x=2? The function is approaching that EMPTY circle, not the black dot that labeled elsewhere.

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Ahhh x=3. Again I got that switched >.<

zepdrix (zepdrix):

So what y coordinate does that correspond to?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y=-1?
