Example: Evaluate the limit lim(x → 3) (2x + 1). Solution: lim(x → 3) (2x + 1) = 2(3) + 1 = 7

Calculating Limits

Limits can be calculated using various methods:

  • Graphically: By analyzing the graph of the function.
  • Analytically: Using algebraic manipulation and limit laws.

Limit Laws

  • Sum Law: lim(x → a) [f(x) + g(x)] = lim(x → a) f(x) + lim(x → a) g(x)
  • Product Law: lim(x → a) [f(x)g(x)] = lim(x → a) f(x) · lim(x → a) g(x)
  • Quotient Law: lim(x → a) [f(x)/g(x)] = lim(x → a) f(x) / lim(x → a) g(x) (provided lim(x → a) g(x) ≠ 0)

Continuity and Discontinuity

A function is continuous at a point if:

  1. The function is defined at that point.
  2. The limit exists at that point.
  3. The limit equals the function value at that point.
