Math Problem Statement
Solution
It looks like you’ve uploaded a problem that involves estimating limits numerically. The table includes values for and corresponding values of for each of the following limits. I'll walk you through the steps for solving the exercises shown in the image.
Exercise 7:
You can estimate the limit by plugging in values of close to 2 and observing the behavior of . Let's fill in the table for .
Solution:
- For each , substitute into the function and compute the corresponding values of .
- As approaches 2, the function should approach .
Exercise 8:
Similarly, estimate the limit for values close to .
Solution:
- Plug in into the function .
- As approaches 1, compute the corresponding values of .
Exercise 9:
This is a rational function, so as approaches 1, observe the behavior near this value.
Solution:
- Substitute into the function .
- Observe the values of to estimate the limit.
Exercise 10:
This involves a sine function, and it's typically useful for understanding limits involving trigonometric functions.
Solution:
- Substitute into .
- As approaches 0, estimate the limit.
Would you like me to compute the exact values for these limits or provide a more detailed breakdown for one of the exercises? Let me know if you'd like further assistance with any of these!
Here are some related questions you could explore:
- How does the behavior of change as we get closer to the value for each exercise?
- How can you recognize when a limit does not exist numerically?
- What happens if you directly substitute into the expression for exercise 7?
- Can limits involving rational functions have undefined values? How do you handle such cases?
- How does the small-angle approximation for sine relate to limits like exercise 10?
Tip: Always check if the function is continuous around the point of interest, as this can help predict the behavior of the limit.
