I. Evaluate the following limits

√5−𝑥 2 −1 𝑥−9 𝑥
1. lim 𝑥 2 −3𝑥+2 3. lim ( ÷ 𝑥+2)
𝑥→2 𝑥→−2− 2𝑥 3 +3𝑥−2
8𝑥−3 tan(𝑥 2 −𝑥−2)
2. lim 4. lim − (𝑥−2) cosh(𝑥−2)
𝑥→∞ 2𝑥− √4𝑥2 −1 𝑥→−2
𝑥 2 −1
|𝑥+1|
, 𝑖𝑓 𝑥 ≤ 0
II. Given: 𝑓(𝑥) = {⟦2𝑥 − 1⟧, 𝑖𝑓 0 < 𝑥 ≤ 1
sin(ln 𝑥) , 𝑖𝑓 𝑥 > 1

Determine if 𝑓 is continuous or discontinuous at x = -1, 0 and 1. If discontinuous,

classify the type of discontinuity as removable, jump or infinite essential.

III. Use Intermediate Value Theorem to show that

𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑥 3 − 3𝑥 − 1
Has a root in [0,2].
IV. Suppose that the graph 𝑦 = 𝑓(𝑥) is given by the figure below.

1. Evaluate lim− 𝑓(𝑥).

𝑥→2
2. Identify the type of discontinuity
(removable, jump essential or infinite
essential) at x = 2.
3. Evaluate lim 𝑓(𝑥).
𝑥→∞
4. TRUE or FALSE: The line at 𝑦 = 3
is a horizontal asymptote of the graph
𝑦 = 𝑓(𝑥).

V. Use Squeeze Theorem to evaluate lim sin 𝑥 csch 𝑥
