Anyone has the power to commit crimes such as child abuse‚ yet the majority of civilians contain that power. The real question is: why do those individuals who do commit these crimes decide to act on their instincts‚ and why do role models such as professional football players decide to commit crimes when they know how much of a key role they play in our society.

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

Lab 4: Methods of limits Elizabeth Bryan Florida State University Lab 4: Method of limits. Sound waves are created when an object vibrates. 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. The change in stimulus
