Math Problem Statement
Solution
The image shows the mathematical expression:
This statement is false. Let's analyze it:
The limit expression means we are looking at the behavior of the function as approaches 1. Evaluating at gives:
So, the value of the function is indeed 1 at , but this does not mean the limit equals 1 in general. The limit only asks how the function behaves as gets arbitrarily close to 1, which in this case it does tend to 1. Therefore, the limit is indeed 1.
In conclusion, while the limit calculation is correct, the overall equality is only valid under this context.

- What is the formal definition of a limit?
- How do limits behave near discontinuities?
- Can limits exist for functions with vertical asymptotes?
- How do you compute limits that approach infinity?
- How does L'Hopital's Rule apply to indeterminate forms in limits?
Tip: Always substitute the value directly into the limit expression to check for any potential discontinuities before drawing conclusions.
