If it is a differentiable function, you find the value at which its derivative is 0. But in general, you can plot it as a line graph and see where it peaks.

when an operator operate on a function and same function is reproduced with some numerical value then the function is called eigenfunction and the numerical value is called eigen value.
A function--namely a parabola (concave up). To "evaluate" this function you would need an x value and would find the resulting y value. To "solve" this function, you would probably be given a y value and asked to find the corresponding x value(s).
A graph is a function if there is no more than one y-value for any x value. This means no vertical lines or "C" shapes, etc
A limit in calculus is a value which a function, f(x), approaches at particular value of x. They can be used to find asymptotes, or boundaries, of a function or to find where a graph is going in ambiguous areas such as asymptotes, discontinuities, or at infinity. There are many different ways to find a limit, all depending on the particular function. If the function exists and is continuous at the value of x, then the corresponding y value, or f (x), is the limit at that value of x. However, if the function does not exist at that value of x, as happens in some trigonometric and rational functions, a number of calculus "tricks" can be applied: such as L'Hopital's Rule or cancelling out a common factor.
