Limit (An Informal View) If the value of f(x)can be made as close as we like to L by taking values of x sufficiently to a(not equal to a),then we write lim f(x)=L X->0 ●Read as: 0rf(x)>L,asx→a “the limit of f(x)as x approaches a is L.” ●Equivalently 1im(f(x)-L)=0 Limit (An Informal View) ⚫If the value of f (x) can be made as close as we like to L by taking values of x sufficiently to a (not equal to a), then we write ⚫Read as: “the limit of f (x) as x approaches a is L.” ⚫Equivalently lim ( ) ( ) , x a f x L or f x L as x a → = → → lim ( ) 0 ( ) x a f x L → − =
