Squeeze Theorem

Squeeze Theorem: If f(x) ≤ g(x) ≤ h(x) for all x in an interval except possibly at x = c, and lim f(x) = lim h(x) = L, then lim g(x) = L.

Definition of Continuity

No holes, breaks, or jumps

New cards
14

Three conditions to satisfy that y = f(x) is continuous at x = c.

1) f(c) exists

2) lim (x → c) f(x) exists

3) lim (x → c) f(x) = f(c)

Jump Discontinuity

lim (x→c+) f(x) ≠ lim (x→c-) f(x)

16

Removable Discontinuity

lim (x→c) f(c) ≠ f(c)

Theorems on Continuous Functions

1. The Extreme Value Theorem

Extreme Value Theorem: If f is continuous on a closed interval [a, b], then f has both a maximum and minimum value on [a, b].

Theorems on Continuous Functions

1. The Intermediate Value Theorem

If ( f ) is continuous on ([a,b]) and ( k ) is between ( f(a) ) and ( f(b) ), then there exists a ( c ) in ((a,b)) such that ( f(c) = k ).
