    Study Notes

    Limit Theorems and Functions

    • Limit of (\frac{n^{\alpha}}{n + 1} + \sin(n)) as (n \to \infty) gives results like (e^{-\alpha}), (-\alpha), (e^1 - \alpha), and (e^1 + \alpha).
    • Continuous functions (f(x) = h(x)) implies continuity conditions based on (g(x)).

    Function Analysis

    • For function (f(x) = \frac{2 \cos x - \sin^2 x}{(\pi - 2x)^2}) and (g(x) = \frac{e^{-\cos x} - 1}{8x - 4\pi}), (h) is continuous at (x = \frac{\pi}{2}).
    • (f(x)) is continuous at (x = 0) implies conditions on ([f(0)]), suggesting its value plays a role in continuity.
    • A function composed of piecewise definitions could have a removable or irremovable discontinuity at specific points.

    Discontinuity and Differentiability

    • Conditions for differentiability at (x = 0) based on (g(x)) formulas imply dependence on parameter (b).
    • (f(x) = \sin^{-1}(\sin x)) demonstrates continuity but is not differentiable at points like (x = \frac{\pi}{2}(2k + 1)).

    Limits Involving Trigonometric Functions

    • Limit expressions with greatest integer functionality can diverge, demonstrating interesting properties of continuity and differentiability.
    • As (x \to 0), limit involving (f(x) = \frac{\sin^2(x^3 + x^2 + x - 3)}{1 - \cos(x^2 - 4x + 3)}) challenges typical behavior of sinusoidal functions.

    Continuity and Bounds

    • Functions like (f(x) = \max{x^2, (x-1)^2, 2x(1-x)}) show points of non-differentiability based on critical points in the interval ([0, 1]).
    • Functions defined on bounded intervals might exhibit continuity but fail differentiability at select points, emphasizing the need for critical analysis.

    Key Points Summary

    • ( \lim_{x \to 0}[f(x) + g(x)] = 2 ) and ( \lim_{x \to 0}[f(x) - g(x)] = 1 ) infers the resulting limit's evaluation method.
    • The function transitions between conditions indicate distinct behavior at boundary values and test continuity and differentiability asserting.

    Answer Key

    • Answers for multiple-choice and matching questions point out the importance of understanding function continuity, limit behavior, and differentiability concepts.
