- 3. True False. If false create functions that prove it is false. Note: f(x) = g(x). a) If_lim ƒ(x) = ∞ and_lim g(x) = ∞,then_lim [ƒ(x) − g(x)] = 0 x→ 0+ x→0+ x→0+ b) If h(x) and g(x) are continuous at x = c, and if h(c) > 0 and g(c) = 0, then h(x) lim. will = x→c g(x) c) If lim f(x) = 0 and lim g(x) = 0 then lim f(x) does not exist. x-a x-a x→a g(x)arrow_forwardPls help ASAParrow_forward15. a) Consider f(x) = x-1 3x+2 and use the difference quotient to determine the simplified expression in terms of x, for the slope of any tangent to y = f(x). Also, determine the slope at x = 2. 15 b) Determine the equation of the tangent to f(x) at x = 2. Final answer in Standard Form Ax + By + C = 0, A ≥ 0, with no fractions or decimals.arrow_forward
