Show that the limit as x→2off(x)=x-1.1is not equal to 1, by finding an ε>0for which there is no corresponding δ>0satisfying the formal definition of limit.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The δ<0, the expression is false.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given information.

The given function islimx→2x-1.1≠1.

02

Step 2. Calculation.

From the given expression, we have, c=2,L=1.

The limit expression can be written as a formal statement as below,

For all epsilon positive, there exists a delta positive such that if,

x∈2-δ,2∪2,2+δthenx-1.1∈1-ε,1+ε.

So the largest value of δis:

δ=12-1.1-2δ=1-1.1-2δ=1-3.1δ=-2.1

Sinceδ<0, the expression is false.
