For each limit in Exercises 55–64, use graphs and algebra to approximate the largest delta or smallest-magnitude N that corresponds to the given value of epsilon or M, according to the appropriate formal limit definition.

limx→∞lnx=∞,M=100,findsmallestN>0

Short Answer

Expert verified

The required value ofN=e100

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given Information 

The given function isf(x)=lnx

02

Step 2. Explanation   

From the given function, we have, c=∞,L=∞

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

For all M positive, there is some N positive such that ifx∈(N,∞)

Thenlnx∈(M,∞)

Now the smallest value of N is given by,

lnx=100x=e100

Use algebra to find the largest possible value of δ or smallest possible value of N that makes each implication true. Then verify and support your answers with labeled graphs.
Ifx>N, then1−2x<−500

Determine whether each of the statements that follow is true or false. If a statement is true, explain why. If a statement is false, provide a counterexample.

(a) A limit exists if there is some real number that it is equal to.

(b) The limit of fxas x→cis the value fc.

(c) The limit of fxas x→cmight exist even if the value of fcdoes not.

(d) The two-sided limit of fxas x→cexists if and only if the left and right limits of fxexists as x→c.

(e) If the graph of fhas a vertical asymptote at x=5, then limx→5fx=∞.

(f) If limx→5fx=∞, then the graph of fhas a vertical asymptote at x=5.

(g) If limx→2fx=∞, then the graph of fhas a horizontal asymptote at x=2.

(h) Iflimx→∞fx=2, then the graph offhas a horizontal asymptote aty=2.

Find a formula for the cost Crof producing a gourmet soup can with radius rand height 5inches, and answer the following questions:

  1. What is the radius of a can that is 5inches tall and costs 30cents to produce?
  2. Your manager wants you to produce 5-inch-tall cans that cost between 20and 40cents. Write this requirement as an absolute value inequality.
