Could someone please help me? It's Calculus
\[\sqrt{x+1}-1/x\] x= -0.001, -0.01, -0.1, 0, 0.001, 0.01, 0.1
oh and lim x --> 0
Is this \[ \frac{ \sqrt{x+1}-1 }x \] ?
yes<3
Take \[ f(x)=\sqrt{x+1} \]
The limit should be what in function of f(x)?
well i know you're suppose to plug and chug those numbers but i kept getting 1 except when i was at 0
\[ \lim_{x->0}\frac{f(x) -f(0) }{x-0}=f'(0) \]
could you put that in table form?
\[f'(x)=\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{x+1}} \\ f'(0)=\frac 12 \]
\[ \left( \begin{array}{cc} -0.001 & 0.500125 \\ -0.01 & 0.501256 \\ -0.1 & 0.513167 \\ 0 & \text{Indeterminate} \\ 0.001 & 0.499875 \\ 0.01 & 0.498756 \\ \end{array} \right) \] You can see that the limits is approaching .5
where did you get the 2
Are you still here?
no i got it, i had a brain fart, sorry for the stupid question lol
