Step 1:

\

The function is \"\".

\

(1)

\

Find \"\".

\

The function is \"\".

\

Construct the table for different values of x near to 4 from left :

\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \
x3.53.93.993.9993.9999
f(x)1121400014x10614x10914x1012
\

Observe the table.

\

The value of f(x) at x = 3.9999 is 14x1012.

\

As x tends to 4 from left side f(x) approaches to large positive number.

\

Therefore \"\".

\

Step 2:

\

(2)

\

Find \"\".

\

The function is \"\".

\

Construct the table for different values of x near to 4 from right :

\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \
\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"
\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"
\

Observe the table.

\

The value of f(x) at x = 4.0001 is \"\".

\

As x tends to 4 from right side f(x) approaches to large negative number.

\

Therefore \"\".

\

Step 3:

\

(3)

\

Find \"\".

\

The function is \"\".

\

Left hand limit :

\

As x tends to 4 from left side f(x) approaches to large positive number.

\

\"\".

\

Right hand limit :

\

As x tends to 4 from right side f(x) approaches to large negative number.

\

\"\".

\

Left hand limit and right hand limit are not equal, limit does not exist.

\

\"\" does not exist.

\

Solution :

\

(1) \"\".

\

(2) \"\".

\

(3) \"\" does not exist.
