In our previous article, we discovered that limits can be found algebraically via direct substitution, and provided some intuition for why that is. Let’s remind ourselves of how to find limits via direct substitution. For a function such as: We can plug in 1 for x, and reach ...

In our previous article, we introduced the concept of limits by factorization and provided an intuitive yet rigorous explanation for the method. You’ve already seen an example in our last article. Let’s continue discussing limits by factorization and rationalization: Many limi...
