Math Problem Statement
Solution
From the image, we are tasked with analyzing the graph of the function to evaluate some one-sided limits and verify a statement.
1. The First Limit:
The limit as approaches (from the left) is already provided: This means as approaches 0 from the left, the function value approaches 2, which matches the graph's behavior near .
2. The Second Limit:
We now need to determine: Looking at the graph, as approaches 0 from the right, the function value still seems to approach (there’s no break or jump near on the right side). Therefore:
3. Statement Verification:
The next task is to determine whether the statement is True or False. Since both the left-hand limit () and the right-hand limit () are equal to 2, the overall limit exists and is equal to 2. Thus, the statement is True.

Here are five related questions to expand your understanding:
- What happens to when and ?
- How can you determine if a function is continuous at a point using limits?
- What is the relationship between one-sided limits and the overall limit?
- How can you identify discontinuities in a graph based on limits?
- What is the difference between limits that exist and limits that do not?
Tip: When analyzing limits graphically, always check the function's behavior from both sides of the point in question to ensure the left-hand and right-hand limits match.
