Math Problem Statement

根据函数极限定义证明以下问题: 1. \lim_{x \to \infty} \left( 1 + \frac{1}{x^2} \right)^{x^2} = e 2. \lim_{x \to 1} \frac{3x + 1}{x^2 - 1} = 4 已知 \lim_{x \to 2} f(x) = 1,证明: 1. 存在 \delta_1 > 0, 使得当 0 < |x - 2| < \delta_1 时 f(x) > \frac{5}{6}。 2. 对任意 k \in (0, 1),存在 \delta_2 > 0, 使得当 0 < |x - 2| < \delta_2 时 f(x) > k。

Solution

The image contains problems related to limits in calculus. Here is a translation of the mathematical problems in the image:

Problem 1:

Using the definition of the limit, prove:

  1. limx(1+1x2)x2=e\lim_{x \to \infty} \left( 1 + \frac{1}{x^2} \right)^{x^2} = e
  2. limx13x+1x21=4\lim_{x \to 1} \frac{3x + 1}{x^2 - 1} = 4

Problem 2:

It is known that limx2f(x)=1\lim_{x \to 2} f(x) = 1. Prove the following:

  1. There exists δ1>0\delta_1 > 0, such that when 0<x2<δ10 < |x - 2| < \delta_1, f(x)>56f(x) > \frac{5}{6}.
  2. For any constant k(0,1)k \in (0, 1), there exists δ2>0\delta_2 > 0, such that when 0<x2<δ20 < |x - 2| < \delta_2, f(x)>kf(x) > k.

If you'd like, I can solve or guide you through any of these problems. Let me know which specific problem you'd like to work on!

Here are 5 related questions you might find helpful:

  1. How do you formally define the limit of a function as xax \to a?
  2. What is the general method for proving limits using ϵ\epsilon-δ\delta definitions?
  3. How can you solve limits that involve indeterminate forms?
  4. What strategies can be used to evaluate limits at infinity?
  5. How does the continuity of a function affect the existence of limits?

Tip: When working with limits, always check for indeterminate forms like 00\frac{0}{0} or \frac{\infty}{\infty}, as these often indicate the need for algebraic manipulation or L'Hopital's Rule.
