Question
Let
be a function of
. The value of can be found using the squeeze theorem with the functions g
and h
. Which of the following could be graphs of f,
, and h ?
A
B
C
D
Answer/Explanation
Ans:D
The hypothesis conditions of the squeeze theorem are satisfied, since g(x)≤f(x)≤h(x)
on the interval shown and \(\lim_{x\rightarrow a}g(x)=\lim_{x\rightarrow a}h(x) \) .Therefore, \(\lim_{x\rightarrow a}f(x)\)can be found using the squeeze theorem with these functions g and
Question
The function g is given by \(g(x)=\frac{1}{x^{2}-4x+5}\).The function h
is given by \(h(x)=\frac{2x^{2}-8x+10}{x^{2}-4x+6}\). If f is a function that satisfies g(x)≤f(x)≤h(x) for
, what is ?
A 0
B 1
C 2
D The limit cannot be determined from the information given.
Answer/Explanation
Ans: B
Since and it can be concluded from the squeeze theorem that because g(x)≤f(x)≤h(x) for 0<x<5
Question
The function f is defined for all x in the interval 3<x<6. Which of the following statements, if true, implies that ?
A There exists a function g with f(x)≤g(x) for 3<x<6, and
B There exists a function g with g(x)≤f(x) for 3<x<6, and
C There exist functions g and h with g(x)≤f(x)≤h(x) for 3<x<6, and and
D There exist functions g and hh with g(x)≤f(x)≤h(x) for 3<x<6, and
Answer/Explanation
Ans: D
The hypothesis conditions of the squeeze theorem are confirmed, so it may be concluded that
