Evaluate the left-and right-hand limits ...

Evaluate the left-and right-hand limits of the function `f(x)={(|x-4|)/(x-4),x!=4, 0,x=4 ,at x=4`

A

1

B

-1

C

0

D

non-existent

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`("LHL of" f(x) " at " x=4)`
`-lim_(xto4^-)f(x)=lim_(hto0)f(4-h)=lim_(hto0)(|4-h-4|)/(4-h-4)`
`=lim_(hto0)(|-h|)/(-h)=lim_(hto0)(h)/(-h)=lim_(hto0)-1=-1`.
To evalate RHL of `f(x) at x=a` i.e.,`lim_(xtoa^+)f(x)` we may use the following algorithm:
