Limits of Piecewise FunctionsHW

The document provides 13 problems evaluating limits of piecewise functions as x approaches various values. Each problem defines a piecewise function f(x) and asks to evaluate the limit of f(x) as x approaches a given value. The functions are composed of different polynomial expressions defined on different intervals separated by discrete values that the function may take on.
