Our teacher did not explain limits very well and he gave us a few example problems to work on, but I dont know where to start. The question looks like this:
Compute the following limits (if possible):
a)lim as x->infinity (-3+x^-1/4)
b)lim as X->0 (x^2-3x-1/3)
c)lim f(x) as x->1, where f(x)={0 if x is composed of Q), 1 if x is not composed of Q}
In A and B, I started to use a t-chart to show the values of x as it approached infinity, but wasn't sure if that was the correct way to show that.
C has me baffled. The way he wrote the test (yes, it's handwritten) he has the "Q" as a scripted Q, which to my understanding means "fractions/rationals".
