Determine whether the statement is true or false. If it is false, explain why or give an example that shows it is false.
If f(c) = L,then lim x→c f(x) = L.
False. Define f to be the piece-wise function where f(x) = x + 3 when x ≠ −1 and f(x) = 2 when x = −1. Then we have f(−1) = 2 while the limit of f as x approaches −1 is equal to −2.
False. Define f to be the piece-wise function where f(x) = x − 4 when x ≠ 2 and f(x) = 0 when x = 2. Then we have f(2) = 0 while the limit of f as x approaches 2 is equal to −2.
False. If f(c) = L, then the limit of f as x approaches c is equal to L/c.
False. If f(c) = L, then the limit of f as x approaches c is equal to cL.
The statement is true.
If f(c) =L then it is (False)
We can see by an example -
Here
So these are not equal.
Define f to be the piece-wise function where f(x) = x + 3 when x ≠ −1 and f(x) = 2 when x = −1. Then we have f(−1) = 2 while the limit of f as x approaches −1 is equal to −2. (False )
Define f to be the piece-wise function where f(x) = x − 4 when x ≠ 2 and f(x) = 0 when x = 2. Then we have f(2) = 0 while the limit of f as x approaches 2 is equal to −2. (True)
And
If f(c) = L, then the limit of f as x approaches c is equal to L/c. (False) There is no relation between these.
False. If f(c) = L, then the limit of f as x approaches c is equal to cL. (False) There is no relation between these.
