    In the previous section, limits were estimated using tables of values which may not guarantee the actual limit. This section will compute limits by applying a theorem that establishes properties for limits including: the limit is unique if it exists; the limit of a constant is the constant; and the limit of the sum, difference, product or quotient of two functions is equal to the sum, difference, product or quotient of the individual limits.

    In the previous subsection, we tried to compute the limit of a given function using tables of values.

    However, this method only gives us an estimate of the limit, not guaranteeing that the value which
    the function seems to approach is indeed the limit. In this section, we will compute limits not by
    making tables of values or by graphing, but by applying the theorem below.
    Theorem 1.1.10. Let f(x) and g(x) be functions defined on some open interval containing a, except
    possibly at a.
    1. If x!alim f(x) exists, then it is unique.
    2. If c 2
    , then x!alim c = c.
    3. x!alim x = a

    4. Suppose x!alim f(x) = L1 and x!alim g(x) = L2 where L1, L2 2


    .
    (a) x!alim [f(x) ± g(x)] = L1 ± L2
    (b) x!alim [cf(x)] = cL1

    (c) x!alim [f(x)g(x)] = L1L2


    (d) x!a
    lim f(x)
