- Limits (An Introduction) - Math is Fun
We want to give the answer "2" but can't, so instead mathematicians say exactly what is going on by using the special word "limit" The limit of (x2−1) (x−1) as x approaches 1 is 2 And it is written in symbols as: lim x→1 x2−1 x−1 = 2
- Calculus I - Limits - Pauls Online Math Notes
In this chapter we introduce the concept of limits We will discuss the interpretation meaning of a limit, how to evaluate limits, the definition and evaluation of one-sided limits, evaluation of infinite limits, evaluation of limits at infinity, continuity and the Intermediate Value Theorem
- 1. 1: An Introduction to Limits - Mathematics LibreTexts
With limits, we can accomplish seemingly impossible mathematical things, like adding up an infinite number of numbers (and not get infinity) and finding the slope of a line between two points, where the "two points'' are actually the same point
