Limit theorems

show that the following limits do not exist: use def. of convergence or cauchy or epsilon delta a. lim as x goes to 0 of (1/(x^2)) x>0 b. lim as x goes to 0 of (1/(x^1/2)) same as (1/sqrtx) c. lim as x goes to 0 of (x + sgn(x)) d. lim as x goes to 0 of sin(1/(x^2)) let f: R---> R be defined by setting f(x)= x if x is ...continues

Riemann integral

define f(x) = x if x is rational and f(x)=0 if x is irrational. Compute the integration 1top0bottom f dx and integration 1top0bottom f dx. is f integrable on [0,1]? the first integration is upper sums and the second is lower sums

Mean value theorem

use the MVT to prove that ny^(n-1)(x-y)greater than or equal to x^n-y^n greater than or equal to nx^(n-1)(x-y if n less than or equal to 1 and 0 less than or equal to y less than or equal to x

For any integer a, argue that a + 3 > a + 2

1)For any integer a, argue that a + 3 > a + 2 3) An integer a is divisible by an integer b means there is an integer z such that a = b x z. use any properties of the integers through page 14 to prove that fir integers a,b and c such that if a is divisible by b and b is divisible by c the a is divisible by c. 4) let Z deno ...continues
