Study Notes
Limit Properties
- The limit of a constant is the constant itself:
lim 4 = 4
regardless of the value ofx
. - The limit of
x
asx
approaches a value is the value itself:lim x = 2
asx → 2
.
Limit Theorems
- The limit of a sum is the sum of the limits:
lim (x + 7) = lim x + lim 7 = 4 + 7 = 11
asx → 4
. - The limit of a difference is the difference of the limits:
lim (2x - 3 + 3x - 5) = lim 2x - 3 + lim 3x - 5
asx → 4
. - The limit of a product is the product of the limits:
lim 2x = lim 2 lim x = 2(3) = 6
asx → 3
. - The limit of a composite function is the limit of the outer function times the limit of the inner function:
lim 2x(3x - 1) = lim 2x lim (3x - 1)
asx → 4
.
Polynomial Function
- A polynomial function is defined as:
f(x) = c0 + c1x + c2x^2 + … + cnx^n
. - The limit of a polynomial function as
x
approachesa
is:lim f(x) = lim (c0 + c1x + c2x^2 + … + cnx^n) = f(a)
asx → a
. - To evaluate the limit of a polynomial function, substitute
a
inf(x)
.
Evaluating Limits
- To evaluate a limit, substitute the value of
x
into the function:lim 2x^3 + 3x^2 - 1 = 2(2)^3 + 3(2)^2 - 1 = 27
asx → 2
. - To evaluate a limit, substitute the value of
x
into the function:lim 3x^7 - 5x^4 + 2x^3 + 9 = -1
asx → -1
