Question

I was wondering if anyone could help me with this. I was able to get the ones before this one without any problems and now I can't get the correct answer.
Use the given graph of f to state the value of each quantity, if it exists. (If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.)
(Will post picture of graph below)
(e) lim f(x)
x → 4

Answer 1

What answer did you put?

Answer 2

Sorry my school's internet keeps cutting out. First I had originally put DNE and webassign said it was wrong so I reworked the question again and thought it would be 2, and that was also wrong. Looking at my notes from class I then somehow ended up with 3 and then 1, and both of those are wrong. I'm just so confused on what to do with this one. My professor isn't very clear at all on how to solve limits.

Answer 3

The limit is just the value that a function appears to be approaching for an x value (the y-value that y gets ever closer to as x gets ever closer to a number). Even though no value exist at the point x=4, at x=4 y approaches 4, therefore the limit as x approaches 4 is 4.

Answer 4

Thank you!

Answer 5

Np ;) Im glad I helped you
