Find limit of a function that seems undefined? HELP!?-Record and share programming errors

• Just because the function at the point x=0 doesn’t exist doesn’t mean that there’s no limit. The limit is what the x value approaches from both sides of the function. Try plugging in positive and negative numbers close to 0, such as -.1, -.01, .01, and .1 and see what y values you get and if they approach a common number from both sides.

• well, you can multiply the whole thing by (.5/.5) so you get: .5sin(x)/x you can pull out the .5 because of the multiplication property and then multiply the limit of that by the lim of sin(x)/x which is something that is generally accepted as 1

  so .5*1 = .5
