Math Problem Statement
Solution
The task involves analyzing the provided graph and finding several limits of the function , as well as evaluating some specific function values. Let me go through each one:
-
:
- As approaches infinity, the function seems to approach the horizontal asymptote at .
- Answer:
-
:
- As approaches negative infinity, the function approaches a horizontal asymptote at .
- Answer:
-
:
- As approaches from both sides, the function value heads towards (there is a hole at ).
- Answer:
-
:
- Since there is a hole at , the function is not defined at .
- Answer: Undefined
-
:
- As approaches from the left, the function goes to (the vertical asymptote).
- Answer:
-
:
- As approaches from the right, the function goes to .
- Answer:
-
:
- Since the left-hand and right-hand limits do not match (one goes to and the other goes to ), the limit does not exist.
- Answer: DNE (Does Not Exist)
-
:
- At , there is a vertical asymptote, so the function is not defined.
- Answer: Undefined
-
:
- As approaches from the left, the function approaches .
- Answer:
-
:
- As approaches from the right, the function also approaches .
- Answer:
-
:
- Since both the left-hand and right-hand limits are equal to , the overall limit exists and equals .
- Answer:
-
:
- From the graph, .
- Answer:
-
:
- As approaches from the left, the function approaches .
- Answer:
-
:
- As approaches from the right, the function approaches .
- Answer:
-
:
- Since the left-hand and right-hand limits are different ( and ), the overall limit does not exist.
- Answer: DNE (Does Not Exist)
-
:
- From the graph, .
- Answer:
Would you like further clarification on any of the limits or more details?
Here are some related questions to explore:
- What is the formal definition of a limit, and how does it apply to discontinuous functions?
- How do vertical asymptotes affect the limits of a function?
- What is the difference between left-hand and right-hand limits?
- Why does a function's limit not exist at points with differing left-hand and right-hand limits?
- How do you identify the value of a limit graphically?
Tip: Always check if the function is defined at a specific point, as this can differ from the limit approaching that point.
