Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let's go through each of the given limit problems one by one using the provided information.
Given: We'll compute the limits as follows:
(a)
We can split this limit using the sum rule of limits:
Substitute the given values:
So, the limit is .
(b)
By the power rule of limits:
Substitute the given value for :
So, the limit is .
(c)
By the square root rule of limits:
Substitute the given value for :
So, the limit is 2.
(d)
Using the quotient rule of limits:
Substitute the given values for and :
So, the limit is .
(e)
Using the quotient rule of limits:
Substitute the given values:
This expression results in a division by zero, which means the limit does not exist. More specifically, the limit approaches or depending on the direction of approach, but it is undefined overall.
(f)
Using the quotient and product rules of limits:
Substitute the given values for , , and :
So, the limit is 0.
Summary of Results:
- (a)
- (b)
- (c)
- (d)
- (e) Does not exist (division by zero)
- (f)

lim(x->c) [f(x) + g(x)] = lim(x->c) f(x) + lim(x->c) g(x)
lim(x->c) [f(x)g(x)] = lim(x->c) f(x) * lim(x->c) g(x)
lim(x->c) [f(x) / g(x)] = lim(x->c) f(x) / lim(x->c) g(x), provided lim(x->c) g(x) ≠ 0
lim(x->c) [f(x)]^n = [lim(x->c) f(x)]^n
