1/2

100

What are the vertical asymptotes of:

f(x)=4/(x^2-1)

x = 1 and x=-1

100

Where is the following function discontinuous?

f(x)=(x^2-4)/(x-2)

x=2

100

lim_(x\toinfty)(3x+2)/(5x-4)

3/5

100

lim_(x\to0)sin(x)/x

1

200

lim_(x\to2)(x^2+x-6)/(x^2-6x+8)

-5/2

200

What are the vertical asymptotes of:

y=(2x^2+2x+3)/(4x^2-4x)

x=0 and x=1

200

x<1: f(x)=4

x>1: f(x)=x^2+2

Is the function continuous at x=1?

No, f(x) is not continuous at x=1 because the left- and right-hand limits do not match (3 and 4, respectively)

What are the asymptotes of:

y=(x^2-9)/(3x-9)

There are none!

300

Is f(x) continuous at x=2? 

x\ne2, f(x)=x^2

x=2, f(x)=1

No, f(x) is not continuous at x = 2.

300

lim_(x\toinfty)(5x+3)/(6x^2+4)

0

300

List the three conditions for proving continuity at a point:

f(a) \exists

lim_(x\toa^-)f(x)=lim_(x\toa^+)f(x)

f(a)=lim_(x\toa)f(x)

lim_(x\to0)(sin2x)/(3x)

2/3

400

What are the asymptotes of:

y=sin(x)

There are none!

Determine if the following function is continuous at x=-2:

f(x)= {x²+2x if x≤-2

x^3-6x if x≥-2.

The left hand limit is 0 and the right hand limit is 4. Since the left and right hand limits are not equal, a limit does not exist at x=-2.
