LIMIT THEOREMS
To obtain results in calculus, we will frequently operate with limits. The proofs
of theorems shown in this section will be omitted in the interest of brevity. The
theorems will be stated and examples will be given.
Assume that we have three simple functions of x. Further, let these functions
[ f (x), g(x), and h (x)] have separate limits such that
Theorem 1. The limit of the sum of two functions is equal to the sum of the limits:
SOLUTION:

Theorem 2. The limit of a constant, c, times a function, f(x), is equal to the constant,
c, times the limit of the function:
SOLUTION�
Theorem 3. The limit of the product of two functions is equal to the product of their
limits:
SOLUTION.
Theorem 4. The limit of the quotient of two functions is equal to the quotient of their
limits, provided the limit of the divisor is not equal to zero:
SOLUTION�
