LIMITS AND CONTINUITY 1. The concept of limit x2 − 4 . Examine the behavior of f (x) as x approaches 2. Example 1.1. Let f (x) = x−2 Solution. Let us compute some values of f (x) for x close to 2‚ as in the tables below. We see from the first table that f (x) is getting closer and closer to 4 as x approaches 2 from the left side. We express this by saying that “the limit of f (x) as x approaches 2 from left is 4”‚ and write x→2− lim f (x) = 4. Similarly‚ by looking at the second table

They have two main components: frequency (pitch; measured in Hertz (Hz)) and amplitude (loudness‚ intensity; measured in decibels (dB)). The method of limits is a psychophysical method in which a particular dimension of a stimulus‚ or the difference between two stimuli‚ is varied incrementally until the participant responds differently.

It is therefore important to be able to assess the magnitude of these and their effect on the reliability of the final result. It is important to differentiate between the accuracy and the precision of a result. The accuracy of a measurement refers to the "closeness" of a numerical value to the actual or theoretical value. The accuracy
