(a)

\

The function is \"\".

\

Graph :

\

Graph the function \"\" :

\

\"\"

\

Observe the graph.

\

As \"\" tends to \"\" from left hand side, the value of \"\" approaches to \"\".

\

So \"\".

\

As \"\" tends to \"\" from right hand side, the value of \"\" approaches to \"\".

\

So \"\".

\

Left hand limit and right hand limit are equal, so \"\" is exist.

\

Therefore \"\".

\

\

(b)

\

The function is \"\".

\

Construct the table with nearest value of \"\", to estimate the value of \"\" :

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

Observe the table.

\

The value of \"\" at \"\" is \"\" and the value of \"\" at \"\" is \"\".

\

Therefore the value of \"\" at \"\" is \"\".

\

\"\".

\

\"\"

\

\"\".
