Homework-3 : Due 10/12/2024 at 11:00pm HKT
The problems in this homework set cover the basic concept of limits of functions and limit calculation. You need to know:
1. the idea of limits: trending behaviour of function values from tables and/or graphs;
2. basic limit laws;
3. algebraic techniques in limit computation, and the Squeeze Theorem;
4. infinite limits and limits at infinity, vertical and horizontal asymptotes;
5. The concept of continuity of functions.
Give 4 or 5 significant digits for numerical answers. For most problems when entering numerical answers, you can if you wish enter
elementary expressions such as 3^ 2 or 3**2 instead of 9, sin(3⇤pi/2) instead of -1, e^ (ln(3)) instead of 3, (1+tan(3))⇤(4 sin(5))^ 6 15/8
instead of 12748.8657, etc.

Consider the function f (x) = x 3 . Problem 2. (6 points)
Use the figure below, which gives a graph of the function
(a) Fill in the following table of values for f (x): f (x), to give values for the indicated limits.

x= 2.9 2.99 2.999 2.9999 3.0001 3.001 3.01 3.1

f (x) =
5.9 5.99 5.999 5.999 6.0 6.001 6.01 6.1

(b) Based on your table of values, what would you ex-

in the answer blank for that limit.)

(c) Graph the function to see if it is consistent with your
answers to parts (a) and (b). By graphing, find an inter-
val for x 3 near zero such that the di↵erence between (a) lim f (x) =
x! 2

your conjectured limit and the value of the function is (b) lim f (x) =
x!0
less than 0.01. In other words, find a window of height (c) lim f (x) =
0.02 such that the graph exits the sides of the window x!2
and not the top or bottom. What is the window? (d) lim f (x) =
