Math Problem Statement

Use the given graph of the function g to find the following limits: 1. \(\lim\limits_{x \to -2} g(x)\) 2. \(\lim\limits_{x \to -2^+} g(x)\) 3. \(\lim\limits_{x \to 2^-} g(x)\) 4. \(\lim\limits_{x \to 0} g(x)\) 5. g(2)

Solution

Let's analyze the graph to answer the questions about the limits and function values. From the image:

  1. limx2g(x)\lim\limits_{x \to -2} g(x):

    • As xx approaches -2 from both sides (left and right), it seems like the graph approaches a specific value. From observation, it appears that g(x)g(x) approaches 0 as xx gets closer to -2.
    • Answer: 00
  2. limx2+g(x)\lim\limits_{x \to -2^+} g(x):

    • The right-hand limit as xx approaches -2 appears to also approach 0, as the graph converges from both sides symmetrically.
    • Answer: 00
  3. limx2g(x)\lim\limits_{x \to 2^-} g(x):

    • As xx approaches 2 from the left side, the graph approaches a value of about 1.
    • Answer: 11
  4. limx0g(x)\lim\limits_{x \to 0} g(x):

    • As xx approaches 0 from both sides, the graph appears to converge to a value of approximately -2.
    • Answer: 2-2
  5. g(2)g(2):

    • The graph shows a hole at x=2x = 2 and a filled dot at y=0y = 0, meaning g(2)=0g(2) = 0.
    • Answer: 00

Tip:

When analyzing limits graphically, always check the behavior of the function from both the left and right to determine if the two-sided limit exists.
