| Probe | [img]http://www.2xx.org/probe/limitgraph.JPG[/img] could someone explain how to find the limit of the function as x approaches 3? i seem to be having trouble with this since im not given the function, just the graph. incase anyone is wondering about the drawing, the function is suposed to be intercepting the graph at (1,0), the rest is pretty accurate. thanks! | September 21, 2006, 8:11 PM |

| Yoni | What does "limit as x approaches 3" mean? How does the function behave for values of x near 3? Spoilers: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_of_a_function Read the few paragraphs under "Definition" (don't read below, it won't interest you). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_to_evaluate_the_limit_of_a_real-valued_function Read this page. You don't have to understand it completely, but maybe it'll give you some sense of what's going on with limits. | September 21, 2006, 9:37 PM |
