\[\lim_{t \rightarrow 0}\frac{ \sin3t }{ t }\]
OpenStudy (zarkon):
\[=\lim_{t\to 0}3\frac{\sin(3t)}{3t}\]
OpenStudy (zenmo):
Why do we put a 3 in front and how did the 3 appeared at the denominator?
OpenStudy (zarkon):
\[=\lim_{t\to 0}\frac{\sin(3t)}{t}=\lim_{t\to 0}1\times\frac{\sin(3t)}{t}=\lim_{t\to 0}\frac{3}{3}\times\frac{\sin(3t)}{t}=\lim_{t\to 0}3\frac{\sin(3t)}{3t}\]
OpenStudy (zenmo):
so whenever we have a limit that is undefined, such as this, we multiply it by 1?

OpenStudy (zarkon):
the limit is defined
OpenStudy (zarkon):
it can be computed
OpenStudy (zenmo):
How is the limit defined?
OpenStudy (zenmo):
Because, I'm used to seeing fractions that have a 0 at the denominator being undefined
OpenStudy (zarkon):
the limit is of the form \(\dfrac{0}{0}\)

ah, I see.
OpenStudy (zarkon):
making it an indeterminant form...which in this case the limit exists
OpenStudy (zenmo):
Okay, got it now. Thank you :0
OpenStudy (zarkon):
