Evaluate the limit from a continuous graph

The video tutorial explains the concept of limits in calculus, focusing on how functions behave as X approaches infinity and negative infinity. It covers the evaluation of function values at specific points and discusses the concept of approaching limits from different directions, including right-hand and left-hand limits. The tutorial aims to clarify the notation and understanding of limits, which are fundamental in understanding the end behavior of functions.

What does the limit notation primarily describe in a function?

• The value the function approaches as x approaches infinity

• The minimum value of the function

• The maximum value of the function

• The starting point of the function

As x approaches negative infinity, what happens to the function's values?

• They remain constant

• They approach positive infinity

• They oscillate

• They approach negative infinity

How do you find the function value at a specific point like -2?

• By drawing a graph

• By guessing the value

• By using a calculator

• By plugging the point into the function

What is the function value at x = -2 in the given example?

• 1

• 2

• 3

• 4

What does the plus sign in limit notation indicate?

• Approaching from the right

• Approaching from below

• Approaching from above

• Approaching from the left

When approaching a limit from both directions, what is this called?

• Directional limit

• Undefined limit

• Specific limit

• General limit

What is the general limit value as x approaches -2 from both directions?

• 1

• 2

• 3

• 4
