Solution

Here is a summary of the answers marked on your paper:

  1. Answer: D) 54\frac{5}{4}
  2. Answer: B) Does not exist
  3. Answer: C) 00
  4. Answer: B) x=2,x=0x = -2, x = 0
  5. Answer: B) 4-4

Observations and Steps for Each Question:

  1. Limits involving trigonometric functions: The user marked 54\frac{5}{4}, possibly requiring validation.

  2. limx0xcos(1x)\lim_{x \to 0} x \cos\left(\frac{1}{x}\right):
    Using the Squeeze Theorem: xxcos(1x)x-x \leq x\cos\left(\frac{1}{x}\right) \leq x, and as x0x \to 0, both bounds approach 00. Therefore, the limit exists and equals 00.
    Correct Answer: C)0C) 0, not BB as marked.

  3. x3f(x)xx^3 \leq f(x) \leq x for x[1,1]x \in [-1,1]:
    When x0x \to 0, both x30x^3 \to 0 and x0x \to 0, so f(x)0f(x) \to 0.
    Correct Answer: C)0C) 0 (user answer is correct).

  4. Discontinuities:
    User identified x=2x = -2 and x=0x = 0 based on visual inspection, which is accurate.
    Correct Answer: B)x=2,x=0B) x = -2, x = 0.

  5. Remove discontinuity by adjusting f(1)f(1):
    To make f(x)f(x) continuous, equating limits as x1x \to 1:
    limx1f(x)=limx1+f(x).\lim_{x \to 1^-} f(x) = \lim_{x \to 1^+} f(x). Calculation shows f(1)=4f(1) = -4.
    Correct Answer: B)4B) -4 (user answer is correct).


Relative Questions:

  1. How does the Squeeze Theorem work in evaluating limits?
  2. What conditions must be satisfied for a function to be continuous?
  3. How do you identify points of discontinuity from a graph?
  4. What are the key steps to solve piecewise continuity problems?
  5. How are trigonometric limits evaluated as x0x \to 0?

Tip: Always verify the Squeeze Theorem limits by analyzing both upper and lower bounds carefully.
