Exam Prep: Graphs, Limits, and 6c (Vocabulary)

Vocabulary flashcards based on the lecture notes, focusing on graphs, limits, and the 6c exercise.

Table of function values

A table listing inputs x and their corresponding outputs f(x) to summarize function behavior at selected points.

Graph

A visual plot showing the relationship between x (horizontal axis) and f(x) (vertical axis) for a function.

Left-hand limit (x → a−)

The value that f(x) approaches as x approaches a from values less than a.

Right-hand limit (x → a+)

The value that f(x) approaches as x approaches a from values greater than a.

Limit at a point (x → a)

The value approached by f(x) from both sides as x approaches a; exists if left- and right-hand limits exist and are equal.

Function value at a point (f(a))

The value of the function when the input is exactly a.

6c exercise

A textbook exercise labeled 6c that asks to compute four quantities related to x approaching 1 from both sides and to evaluate f(1).

Printout

A hard copy of notes or source material brought to class for reference.

Notebook check

The instructor reviews a student’s notebook to ensure all concepts are noted and understood.

Posting

An online note or message shared by the instructor for students to study.
