Write a delta–epsilon proof that shows that the function f(x)=2x+1 is continuous at x=5. (This exercise depends on Section 1.3.)

Short Answer

Expert verified

Hence we proved limx→5(2x+1)=11.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given Information 

We are given the function f(x)=2x+1 is continuous atx=5 and we need to write a delta–epsilon proof.

02

Step 2. Delta–epsilon proof  

f(x)=2x+1c=5L=2(5)+1=10+1=11

For ε>0,δ=ε2,

If 0<x-5<δwe have,

2x+1-11=2x-10=2x-5<2δ=2ε2=ε∴limx→52x+1=11
