- Find the limits as x - 0o and as x - -00. y = f(x) = (3 – x)(1 + x)?(1 – x)4 lim f(x) = lim f(x) = X -00 Use this information, together with intercepts, to give a rough sketch of the graph as in the example. У -1arrow_forwardUse the given graph of f to state the value of each quantity, if it exists. (If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.) y 10 2 -2 4 6 8 10 (a) lim f(x) x-5 lim f(x) (b) X-5* (c) lim_f(x) x-5 (d) im f(x) x-9 (e) f(9)arrow_forwardUse the limit definition to find the derivative of the function. Pan 8 co First, find 8 lim Next, simplify the numerator. h> 0 f(a+h)-f(x) h Divide out the h. So now, find the limit f(a+h)-f(x) h 4arrow_forward
