- Sketch a graph of this function, and use the sketch to determine that values of a for which lim x (approaches) a f(x) exsists.arrow_forwardTutorial Exercise Find lim (X + Ax) – f(x) Ax - 0 Дх f(x) = 3x2 - 9xarrow_forwardDescribe how the graph of the given function can be obtained by transforming the graph of the reciprocal function g(x)=1/x. Identify horizontal and vertical asymptotes and use limits to describe the corresponding behavior. Sketch a graph of the function. f(x) = (2x-1) / (x+3)arrow_forward
- Computational: Evaluate the limit of the following functions using the graphical, tabular and algebraic approaches. Use table of values in sketching the graph. The use of graphing software is for checking and verification purposes only. 5- V - V4 + 3x x3 -13x + 12 lim x-3 x3-14x + 15 (1) (3) lim x-7 7- x 2x*- 6x3 + x² + 3 lim 2x2 – 3x lim x-0 2 sin x (2) (4) x - 1 X-1arrow_forwardCalculus I Evaluate lim x→1 f(x) where the graph of f(x) is.arrow_forwardUse the graph to compute lim f(x),arrow_forward
