Limits and Continuity Worksheet

Mathematical function graph illustration

📚 Part 1: Evaluating Limits

1. Evaluate the following limit: lim(x→3) (x² - 9)/(x - 3)

0

6

9

Does not exist

2. Find lim(x→∞) (3x² + 2x - 1)/(x² - 5)
3. Evaluate lim(x→0) (sin(5x))/(x)

0

1

5

Does not exist

4. Calculate lim(x→2⁻) (x + 1)/(x - 2) and lim(x→2⁺) (x + 1)/(x - 2)

✏️ Part 2: Continuity Analysis

5. A function f(x) is continuous at x = a if which conditions are satisfied? (Check all that apply)

f(a) is defined

lim(x→a) f(x) exists

lim(x→a) f(x) = f(a)

f'(a) exists

6. Consider f(x) = { x² + 1 for x < 2, kx - 1 for x ≥ 2 }. Find the value of k that makes f(x) continuous at x = 2.
7. Determine where g(x) = (x² - 4)/(x + 2) is discontinuous and classify the type of discontinuity.
8. True or False: If lim(x→a) f(x) exists, then f(x) must be continuous at x = a.

Answer: _____________ Explain your reasoning:

🎯 Part 3: Application Problems

9. The temperature T(t) in degrees Celsius of a cooling object is given by T(t) = 20 + 60e^(-0.1t), where t is time in minutes. Find lim(t→∞) T(t) and interpret its meaning.
10. A particle's position is given by s(t) = { t² for 0 ≤ t < 3, 18 - 3t for t ≥ 3 }. Is the position function continuous at t = 3? Show all work.
