Question: Prove the statement using the , definition of a limit . lim x - 4 ( x 2 - 6 ) = 1 0 Given

Prove the statement using the , definition of a limit.
limx-4(x2-6)=10
Given >0, we need such that if 0|x-(-4)|, then |(x2-6)-10| whenever 0|x+4|. Notice that if |x+4|1, then -1-9|x-4||||0|x+4|=>|x-4|9 and |x+4|9, so |(x2-6)-10|=|(x+4)(x-4)|=|x+4||x-4|(9)(9)= or upon simplifying we need |x2-16| limit,limx-4(x2-6)=
q,
So take =min{9,1}. Then Thus, by the definition of a
Prove the statement using the , definition of a
