i am thinking between 2 and -1....

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

What is the value of the function slightly to the left of x = 1 ?

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

going down , by -1

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

good, What is the value of the function slightly to the right of x = 1 ?

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

going slightly down by 2 i think

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Very good. That means the left limit is -1 and the right limit is 2. They are not equal, so we say the limit `does not exist`

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

oh wow! Thanks so much. That makes more sense to me now

@ganeshie8

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

i thought -1

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

-1 it is! you simply plugin x = 0

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Is it sin(3x) / sin(2x) ?
