Concept explainers
To graph: The function and evaluate the corresponding one-sided limits. Then determine the limit (if it exists).
Answer to Problem 48CR
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Formula used: Direct Substitution Method
If by direct substituting of the point in the given expression we get a finite number, then the number obtained is the limit of the given expression.
Graph:
Interpretation: From the graph,
So, the limit from the left is
And the limit from the right is
Calculation: Using direct substitution.
For
For
Since one-sided limits are not equal.
Thus,
