To find: The way to evaluate the limit of a difference quotient and how to evaluate a limit using the squeeze theorem.
Answer to Problem 6E
The way to evaluate the limit of a difference quotient and how to evaluate a limit using the squeeze theorem is described.
Explanation of Solution
Consider the direct substitution into the difference quotient always produces the intermediate form
Consider the example for the limit is,
Solve the above function for the function
The squeeze theorem states that the for
The above equation shows that the limit
