Document Summary

Name: consider the rational function g(x) = The discontinuity at x = 1 is removable since g(x) = 2(x + 1) (x 2) if x (cid:54)= 1. So we have lim x 1 (in particular lim x 1 g(x) = lim x 1+ 2(x + 1) (x 2) g(x) = lim x 1 g(x)) = 4). The discontinuity at x = 2 is an in nite discontinuity, i. e. the line x = 2 is a vertical asymptote. We have x g(x) = lim lim x . 2 2 x2 x + 2 x2. 1 x2: consider the following function (where a, b r are constants) if x < 2 if 2 x < 3 if x 3. 3x 2 ax2 + bx + 1 ax + b f (x) = (a) determine lim x 2 f (x), lim x 2+ f (x), lim x 3 f (x), and lim x 3+ f (x).

4. (21 pts) (I) (6 pts) Determine the value of a constant b for which the function g is continuous at 0. Show your work. Justify your answer! 2 x +b if x<0, X-5 g(x) = if x 20, x#4. We have to show that lim g (x) = g (0). g(0) = 0 +18 = -1; lim X0* 0 + 16 ) = lim x + 16 **0* x2 - 160 - 16- Since lim g (x) has to exist (in order for g to be continuous at x = 0), it has to be true that x-0- x0+ X- 0 lim g(x) - lim g(x) = lim g(x). Therefore, -1, and , so b = 5. so, if b = 5, lim g (x) = g(0), and therefore, g is continuous at x = 0. (II) (4 pts) Evaluate the limit. Show your work! 2. b limx- (a) lim g(x) = lim *+- 2 x + b X - 5 : 1 * +16 10 g (x) = lim x++ - Elim x2 - 16 x++ (x - 10).

If so, write the equation (or equations) of all horizontal asymptotes. y = 2, by part (II) (a) y = 0, by part (II) (b) (IV) (7 pts) Determine whether g has any vertical asymptotes. If so, write the equation (or equations) of all vertical asymptotes. Show your work. Justify your answer! 5 + 16 There is no vertical asymptote at x = 5, because lim g(x) = x+5 52-16' -8 + b (x) = there is no vertical asymptote at x = -4, because lim X -4 - 4 - 5 But, lim g(x) = lim + 16 x+4+ x2 - 16 lim_ (x + 16) -20 x+4+ (x - 4) 60 (x + 4) +8 (or the numerator goes to 20, and the denominator is positive and goes to o, as x + 4*) = +00 So, the function g has only one vertical asymptote, x = 4.

Can you please help me with number 5?
