In this unit, we will learn how to evaluate limits. Sometimes we will use a table to estimate the limit numerically. Both sequences and series depend on limits. (1-1) Some fundamental concepts Suppose that zis a moving point on the real numbers line and a is a fixed point on the real numbers line = rr a we have some fundamental concepts Definition of approaching from the left : We say x approaches a from the left and we write x a” ifthe valuesof x arelessthan a and get closeto a 0 <_—______» "5 44 4, > +0 x a Example: Let xis a moving point on the real numbers line giving by X=x, = “ar .where n=1,2,3, we can calculate the values of x in the following table 29 2.98 | 2.997 | 2.9996 | wm ie we will draw the moving of x on the real numbers line x1 I Ow 2.9000 2.9800 2.9970 20986 3 Now note that x gets close to 3 from the left that means x3” Definition of approaching from the right : We say x approaches a from the right and we write x > a” ifthe values of x aregreaterthan a and get closeto a VE NE ™ gr eo tt a x Example: Let xis a moving point on the real numbers line giving by x=x,=3+— ,where n=1,2,3 10" we can calculate the values of xin the following table jx | 3a 3.02 | 3.003 | 3.0004 | ---- >? we will draw the moving of x on the real numbers line L£\NL NS: 3 3.0004 3.0030 3.0200 3.1000 Now note that x gets close to 3 from the right that means x3" Definition of approaching : We say x approaches a and we write xa if x>a* or xa. (1-2) Limit at Point The limit ofa function f(x) is L as x approaches a and we write lim F(x) =L, means that as x get closer and closer to a then the values of f(x) get closer and closer to L. That is, we can make f(x) arbitrarily close to L by choosing x very close to a. Ifno such Lexist, we say that the limit does not exist. (1-3) Properties of Limits 1.

That is, we can make f(x) arbitrarily close to L by choosing x very close to a from the left. Ifno such L exist, we say that the limit does not exist. On other words the values of f(x)can get as close to L as we like by taking values of x sufficiently close to @ such that xa. Theorem : lim S(x)=L if and only if tim, f(@) = lim fab Result : If lim f(2)# lim f(@) then the limit lim f(x) does not exist . ‘We will use the left-hand limit and right-hand limit to calculate the limits for a compound function.

Example: Let xis a moving point on the real numbers line giving by x=x,=10" ,where n=1,2,3,... we can calculate the values of x in the following table x| 10 | 100 | 1000 | 10000 | >? we will draw the moving of x on the real numbers line WOON. 10 100 1000 10000 that means x—> +00 Definition : We say x approaches negative infinity and we write x > -«© if the values of x become larger and negative and more larger and negative without bound. Example: Let xis a moving point on the real numbers line giving by x=x,=-10" ,where 1=1,2,3,..00 we can calculate the values of x in the following table x] -10 | -100 | -1000 | -10000 >| we will draw the moving of xon the real numbers line ces reacts -10000 1000-100 -10 that means x>-« Definition : dim, f(@)=L means that (2) is as close to L as we want provided x is large enough. Definition : Jim, f(x)=L means that f(z) is as close to L as we want provided x is small enough.
