Easy limits by substitution
Define an easy limit as one evaluated by plugging in the limiting value, and work an example such as through to its answer.
Derivatives are never easy limits
Write the difference quotient , show substitution gives , and state that cancellation is always required with assumed.
Left- and right-hand limit notation
Record that means approaching with from the right and means from the left.
Two-sided example with different one-sided limits
For when and when , compute and , noting the value is not used.
