Limits and Continuity

Math ⇒ Calculus

Limits and Continuity starts at 11 and continues till grade 12. QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Limits and Continuity. How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take. When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.

A function f(x) is continuous everywhere except at x = 2, where it has a jump. What type of discontinuity is this?
Evaluate \( \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{2x^2 + 3}{x^2 - 1} \).
Evaluate \( \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\sin x}{x^2} \).
Evaluate \( \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\sin x}{x} \).
Evaluate \( \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{e^x - 1}{x} \).
Evaluate \( \lim_{x \to 1} \frac{x^2 - 1}{x - 1} \).

A function f(x) is continuous everywhere except at x = 2, where it has a jump. What type of discontinuity is this?
Which of the following functions is not continuous at x = 0? (1) f(x) = x^2 (2) f(x) = \frac{1}{x} (3) f(x) = \sin x (4) f(x) = e^x
Which of the following is a removable discontinuity? (1) f(x) = \frac{x^2 - 1}{x - 1} (2) f(x) = \frac{1}{x} (3) f(x) = \tan x (4) f(x) = |x|
Which of the following is an example of a function with a jump discontinuity? (1) f(x) = |x| (2) f(x) = \frac{1}{x} (3) f(x) = \begin{cases} 1, & x < 0 \\ 2, & x \geq 0 \end{cases} (4) f(x) = x^2
Which of the following is NOT a property of limits? (1) \( \lim_{x \to a} [cf(x)] = c \lim_{x \to a} f(x) \) (2) \( \lim_{x \to a} [f(x) + g(x)] = \lim_{x \to a} f(x) + \lim_{x \to a} g(x) \) (3) \( \lim_{x \to a} [f(x)g(x)] = \lim_{x \to a} f(x) \times \lim_{x \to a} g(x) \) (4) \( \lim_{x \to a} [f(x)/g(x)] = \lim_{x \to a} f(x) + \lim_{x \to a} g(x) \)
\( \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\sin 3x}{x} = \underline{\hspace{2cm}} \)
\( \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{1 - \cos x}{x^2} = \underline{\hspace{2cm}} \)
A function f(x) is said to be ______ at x = a if \( \lim_{x \to a} f(x) = f(a) \).
A function is said to have an infinite discontinuity at x = a if ______.
If \( \lim_{x \to 1^-} f(x) = 2 \) and \( \lim_{x \to 1^+} f(x) = 3 \), does \( \lim_{x \to 1} f(x) \) exist?
If \( \lim_{x \to a^-} f(x) = \lim_{x \to a^+} f(x) = L \), then \( \lim_{x \to a} f(x) = L \). True or False?
True or False: If a function is continuous at x = a, then \( \lim_{x \to a} f(x) \) exists.
True or False: If a function is continuous at x = a, then it must be defined at x = a.
