The definition Summary

Definition
Let f be a function which is defined on some open interval
lim f (x) = L if
containing a except possibly at x = a. Then, the xa
and only if for every  > 0 there exist a > 0 such that for all x in
the domain of f one has

|x a| < implies |f (x) L| < .

Ano bang ibig sabihin nito? Pwede nating hatiin ang definition
into two parts,
Let f be a function which is defined on some open interval
containing a except possibly at x = a.
This tells us that, if a (c, d) dapat for all x (c, d) f (x) exists
pero mayroong twist,sa math except possibly at x=a means we
dont care kung f (a) is defined or not.(Parang sa crush mo hindi
importante kung crush ka din niya basta crush mo siya).
The definition Summary

Definition Contd
For every  > 0 there exist a > 0 such that for all x in the
domain of f one has

|x a| < implies |f (x) L| < .

First of all, bakit absolute values? Kasi |x a| measures the


distance x at a sa number line. By computing |x a| masusukat
mo gaano magkalapit si x at a sa isat isa. (In your case, it must
be very huge kasi wala nang tsansang magustuhan ka nya) The
inequality |x a| < says Mag bigay ka ng kahit anong kahit
gano kaliit, mas maliit pa rin ang distance ni x at a kaysa kay
.(Kahit gaano kaliit yung chance na maging crush ka ng crush
mo, mas maliit pa rin yung chance na hindi ka niya love).

P.S. same argument sa |f (x) L| < .


The definition Summary

To Wrap it up

This is how youll show that lim f (x) = L


xa

Given a function f(x) at any a sa pagitan ng kahit anong


interval, f(x) must be defined (we dont care in the case na
f(x) when x=a.)
 > 0 tells you gaano kalapit si f (x) kay L. > 0 tells you
gaano kalapit si x kay a para mangyari ito. Bali ang ibig
sabihin nito ang na gagamitin mo ay naka depende sa  na
ibibigay sayo.(Nakadepende dapat kung kayo na ba ng crush
mo bago ka masaktan g*go wag kang mag assume!!!)

Example
Show that the lim 4x + 5 = 13
x2

Proof.
What we have is
f (x) = 4x + 5
a=2
L = 13
Linear function lang to so defined to sa buong R (set of real
numbers i.e., sa kahit na anong interval)
The definition Summary

Proof. (Contd)

Now, Gaano kalapit si x kay 2, para makasigurado ako na ang


distance ni 4x + 5 at 13 ay mas maliit sa 
Una, sukatin natin ang distance na |f (x) L| :
|f (x) L| = |(4x + 5) (13)|
|f (x) L| = |4x + 5 13|
|f (x) L| = |4x + 5 + (13)|
|f (x) L| = |4x 8|
|f (x) L| = 4 |x 2|
Ibig sabihin, kapag 4 |x 2| <  then we have |f (x) L| <  i.e.,
If |x 2| < 41  then |(4x + 5) (13)| < .
Samakatuwid, We will choose = 14 . Kahit gaano pa kaliit yung
 > 0 na ibigay sayo, sigurado ka pa rin na si > 0 din. That
lim 4x + 5 = 13
shows x2
