calculus Flashcards
continuity
no jumps at x∈D
smoothness
has a tangent at x∈D
f(x) is smooth at x => continuous?
continuous at x
f(x) is continuous at x => smooth?
not necessarily
limit def
the value that a function approaches as the argument approaches some value
when does a limit not exist
left limit ≠ right limit
f(x) is continuous at a => lim(x->a) f(x) = ?
f(a)
f(x) has a horizontal asymptote at y=a => lim(x->∞) f(x) = ?
a … constant
lim(x->a) b = ?
a is a real number or +/- ∞, b is a constant
b
limit of a constant is constant
lim(x->a) b(f(x)) = ?
a is a real number or +/- ∞, b is a constant
b lim(x->a) f(x)
lim(x->a) (f(x) ± g(x)) =
a is a real number or +/- ∞, b is a constant
lim(x->a) f(x) ± lim(x->a) g(x)
lim(x->a) (f(x) x g(x)) =
a is a real number or +/- ∞, b is a constant
lim(x->a) f(x) x lim(x->a) g(x)
lim(x->a) (f(x) / g(x)) =
a is a real number or +/- ∞, b is a constant
lim(x->a) f(x) / lim(x->a) g(x)
