Formulas and Theorems 1a. Definition of Limit: Let f be a function defined on an open interval containing c (except possibly at c ) and let L be a real number. Then lim f ( x ) = L means that for each > 0 there

xa exists a > 0 such that f ( x ) L < whenever 0 < x c < .

Extreme-Value Theorem If f is continuous on a closed interval a, b , then f (x ) has both a maximum and minimum on a, b . To find the maximum and minimum values of a function y = f (x ) , locate 1. 2. the points where f (x ) is zero or where f (x ) fails to exist. the end points, if any, on the domain of f (x ) .
