1. Evaluate each of the following limits if they exist. If it does not exist, indicate why not.

[5] (a)

 

 

 

 

 

 

[4] (c)

The following is acceptable:

 

It is more precise to notice that since the function is not defined when x is a bit less than zero, it follows that the one-sided limit does not exist, and so does not exist too. If you have done that, you should get the marks.

 

 

 

 

 

[8] 2. The graph of the function is depicted below. Note that it is undefined at and at .

[4] (b) What should be for the function to be continuous at ? Explain.

should be 1. Since we would then have and the function would be continuous.
