Study Notes
Limit Notation
- The notation used to represent the limit of a function as x approaches c is $lim_{x\to c} f(x) = L$.
Limit Concept
- The concept of a limit of a sequence is further generalized to deal with functions, where the limit of a function approaches as the input approaches some value.
Limit Interpretation
- The notation $f(x) \to L$ as $x \to c$ signifies that the function f(x) approaches the limit L as x approaches c.
- The statement 'the limit of f of x as x approaches c equals L' means that the output value of the function f(x) gets arbitrarily close to L as the input value x gets arbitrarily close to c.
- When a function f approaches the limit L as x approaches c, it means that the output value of the function f(x) gets arbitrarily close to L as the input value x gets arbitrarily close to c.
Limit Applications
- The concept of a limit is used in calculus and mathematical analysis to study the behavior of functions as the input values approach certain points.
- In mathematics, a limit of a function approaches as the input approaches some value, enabling the study of functions' behavior at specific points.
