What are some examples in which the limit does not exist?
2015年2月26日 · One example is when the right and left limits are different. So in that particular point the limit doesn't exist. For example: if you compress a gas the volume abruptly changes (in changing phase): You can have a limit for p approaching 100 torr from the left (=0.8 l) or right (0.3 l) but not in p=100 torr. So: lim_(p->100)V= doesn't exist. Here, to …
Determining When a Limit does not Exist - Calculus | Socratic
Remember that limits represent the tendency of a function, so limits do not exist if we cannot determine the tendency of the function to a single point. Graphically, limits do not exist when: there is a jump discontinuity (Left-Hand Limit #ne# Right-Hand Limit) The limit does not exist at #x=1# in the graph below. there is a vertical asymptote
How do you know a limit does not exist? + Example - Socratic
2014年8月14日 · In short, the limit does not exist if there is a lack of continuity in the neighbourhood about the value of interest. Recall that there doesn't need to be continuity at the value of interest, just the neighbourhood is required. Most limits DNE when lim_(x->a^-)f(x)!=lim_(x->a^+)f(x), that is, the left-side limit does not match the right-side limit. This typically occurs in piecewise or step ...
What does it precisely mean for the limit to not exist?
2020年6月11日 · Secondly, the author explains how The limit of a quotient cannot be computed by the quotient of the limits when the limit of the denominator is equal to zero and that of the numerator is Positive and proceeds to say that the “limit does not exist” without mentioning the limit notation used for the “infinite limits”, so I assume that he ...
real analysis - Why are there limits which do not exist?
2015年11月18日 · One of the very simple ways a limit fails to exist is when the left hand and right hand limits exist but are not equal. Thus the following example $$\lim_{x \to 0}\frac{\sqrt{x^{2}}}{x}$$ is a very good one. The left hand limit is $-1$ and the right hand limit is $-1$. It is easy to design cases when even one sided limits also don't exist.
What is an example of when a limit does not exist? - Socratic
2018年6月14日 · What are some examples in which the limit does not exist? What is the limit of #(x^2 + x + 4)/(x^3 - 2x^2 + 7)# as x approaches a and when does the limit exist? See all questions in Determining When a Limit does not Exist
Properties of Limits dealing with Existing and Not Existing
2015年9月22日 · Indeed, the first one will never exist, and the second two will only exist if $\lim_{x\rightarrow a}f(x)$ equals something specific (exercise: find out what I mean by this). When reasoning about limits, it's always best to look at examples. I recommend you look at a number of examples before trying to guess general priciples.
$\\lim\\limits_{x \\to a}f(x)$ and $\\lim\\limits_{x \\to a}g(x)$ do ...

limits - What is an essential discontinuity? Is it infinity or non ...
A non-removable discontinuity occurs whenever the right- and left-hand limits are not equal to each other. If an essential discontinuity occurs whenever a one-sided limit does not exist, then because that one-sided limit does not exist, it cannot be said to be equal to the other, and therefore, it is a non-removable discontinuity.
Show that limit does not exist (two variables)
2019年2月6日 · $\begingroup$ If all directional limits give the same value, then the function might not be continuous at that point; it would need to be defined at that point, with a value equal to all the limits. But I think if all possible directional limits exist and are equal, then the function can be said to have that limit.
