Let f (x) = 3x − 1 and ε > 0. Find a δ > 0 such that 0 < ∣x − 5∣ < δ implies ∣f (x) − 14∣ < ε. (Find the largest

such δ.) What limit does this prove?

Answer:

This proves that f is continous at x=5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking f(x) = 3x-1 and \varepsilon>0, we want to find a \delta such that |f(x)-14|

At first, we will assume that this delta exists and we will try to figure out its value.

Suppose that |x-5|. Then

|f(x)-14| = |3x-1-14| = |3x-15|=|3(x-5)| = 3|x-5|< 3\delta.

Then, if |x-5|, then |f(x)-14|. So, in this case, if 3\delta \leq \varepsilon we get that |f(x)-14|. The maximum value of delta is \frac{\varepsilon}{3}.

By definition, this procedure proves that \lim_{x\to 5}f(x) = 14. Note that f(5)=14, so this proves that f is continous at x=5.

The answer is choice A.

We're told that the left and right walls of the cube (LMN and PQR) are parallel planes. Any line contained in one of those planes will not meet another line contained in another plane. With choice A, it's possible to have the front and back walls be non-parallel and still meet the initial conditions. If this is the case, then OS won't be paralle to NR. Similarly, LP won't be parallel to MQ.
