- (b) If we keep the first part of the hypothesis of Theorem 5.3.6(L’Hospital’s Rule) the same but we assume that lim f'(x)/g'(x) = ∞, x→a does it necessarily follow that lim f(x)/g(x)= ∞?, x→aarrow_forwardIn Exercises 15 and 16, use the formal definition of limit to prove that the function has a continuous extension to the given value of x.arrow_forwardGive a complete ?, ? proof of lim ?→3(4? − 5) = 7 That is, given ? > 0 find ? (as a function of ?) such that |?(?) − ?| < ? when |? − ?| < ?.arrow_forward
- Using the ε − N definition of a limit, prove that lim(n→∞)=(6n^3 −2n+1)/(2n^3+1)=3. The expert missed the first part of the question which asks for the ε − N definition.arrow_forwardLet ƒ(x) = x^(1/(1-x)). a. Make tables of values of ƒ at values of x that approach c = 1 from above and below. Does ƒ appear to have a limit as x--> 1? If so, what is it? If not, why not? b. Support your conclusions in part (a) by graphing ƒ near c = 1arrow_forwardInvestigate the limit numerically and graphically. lim?→±∞8?+14?2+9‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾√limx→±∞8x+14x2+9 Calculate the values of ?(?)=8?+14?2+9‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾√f(x)=8x+14x2+9 for ?=±100,x=±100, ±500,±500, ±1000,±1000, and ±10000.and ±10000.

- Find the following limits when they exist: 1. lim g(x) x to 3+arrow_forwardIn some cases, numerical investigations can be misleading. Plot f (x) = cos π x . (a) Does lim x→0 f (x) exist? (b) Show, by evaluating f (x) at x = ±12 ,±14 ,±16 , . . . , that you might be able to trick your friends into believing that the limit exists and is equal to L = 1. (c) Which sequence of evaluations might trick them into believing that the limit is L = −1.arrow_forwardFind the value of the postive constant c, such that lim x->infinty ((x-c)/(x+c))^x=1/4arrow_forward
