If the limit of f(x) as x approaches 8 is 3, can you conclude anything about f(8)? The answer is No. We cannot. See the explanation below.
<h3>What is the justification for the above position?</h3>
Again, 'No,' is the response to this question. The justification for this is that the value of a function does not depend on the function's limit at a given moment.
This is particularly clear when we consider a question with a gap. A rational function with a hole is an excellent example that will help you answer this question.
The limit of a function at a position where there is a hole in the function will exist, but the value of the function will not.
<h3>What is limit in Math?</h3>
A limit is the result that a function (or sequence) approaches when the input (or index) near some value in mathematics.
Limits are used to set continuity, derivatives, and integrals in calculus and mathematical analysis.

Answer:
6 years
Step-by-step explanation:
So each person's age can be represented as a linear equation, since each year our age increases by 1. It can be represented in the slope-intercept form: y=mx+b. The slope in this case is going to be 1, since the time is going to be years, and each year everyone's age goes up by 1 (of course if you're still alive...) and y-intercept in this case represents their current age.
So the father can be represented as: y=x+38
The sons can be represented as: y = x+13 and y=x+5
The daughter can be represented as: y=x+8
So adding up all his children you get:
(x+13)+(x+5)+(x+8)
This gives you the equation:
3x+26
Now set this equal to the father's age to solve for x (in this context it's years)
3x+26=x+38
Subtract from both sides
2x+26=38
Subtract 26 from both sides
2x=12
Divide both sides by 2
x=6
So in 6 years the father will be the same age as his children put together
