A function f(x), of a variable x, is said to have a limiting value of f(xo) as x approaches x0 if, given any value of epsilon, however small, it is possible to find a value delta such that |f(x) - f(x0)| < epsilon for all x such that |x - x0| < delta.


The second inequality can be one-sided.

How do you study calculus easily?

Study the proofs of each chapter in your book, also the solved examples related to them. Read the definitions carefully. Practice systematically.

Can you take precalculus and algebra 2 trig at the same time?

No, you can't. Although similar in concepts, Pre-Calculus is more advanced than Algebra 2. Algebra 2 is taken between Algebra 1 and Geometry or after Geometry and before Pre-Calculus. The reason that you can't take both at the same time is because of the curriculum. Pre-Calculus does not spend nearly as much time on linear topics (linear equations, linear programming, etc.) as Algebra 2 does. Pre-Calculus also almost always is 2 courses in one: Pre-Calculus and Trigonometry. Algebra 2 has very little, if any, trig. Topics that they have in common are quadratics equations/functions, polynomial equations/functions, rational functions, exponential &amp; logarithmic functions (sometimes these are not covered in Algebra 2), possibly conic sections in Algebra 2, definitely in Pre-Calculus, factoring, and probability/sequences/series/statistics. In addition to trigonometry, pre-calculus also covers polar and parametric topics (these will NEVER NEVER NEVER be seen in Algebra 2) and an introduction to limits. So, you must take Algebra 2 before pre-calculus. If you want to take 2 math courses in 1 year, try algebra 1 and geometry (not very common), algebra 2 and geometry (somewhat common), and some schools allow honors students with a solid A in Algebra 2 (assuming you took Algebra 2 before Geometry, this differs between schools) allow you to take geometry and pre-calculus in the same year. The study of proofs is not a major topic in pre-calculus, and proofs make up a majority of geometry.

What is regular calculus?

I think by "regular calculus" it is meant simple derivatives and integrations. Regular calculus would be first year calculus probably not including multi-variable calculus or calculus of variations or vector calculus. Wikipedia gives a good explanation of calculus. If you want to sound smart, call it "The Calculus". It is the study of the rate of change (how things change, in relation to other things, often time) In most Universities, regular calculus are the standard analysis of Calculus, concentrating more on the application of it rather than the concept. in comparison is either called "advanced calculus" or in my U, "Honours Calculus" which takes analysis to a whole new level. Both first year course, but the advanced one concentrates on the understanding of concepts, theorems rather than applications alone. It comes in the form of "mathematical proof". Regular Calculus does proofs too, but not as often. --------------------------------------------- Regular calculus is most probably calculus taught in high school or university level, which is simple, mostly single-variable calculus. But then, there are also different calculi called non-Newtonian calculi. These are the non-standard, non-regular calculi, in which different operators are defined. For example, "regular calculus" might mean an additive calculus (where the integral is defined by adding up extremely small pieces), while an integral in multiplicative calculus might involve multiplying infinitely many pieces close to 1.

How do you get a ID card?

You apply at the appropriate authority, follow the prescribed procedure, pay the appointed fee, present requested proofs and wait for the designated waiting period. If you qualify, you should be issued the ID card.

How do errors affect the validity of experimental data?

The data will be neglected because people will consider it to be wrong.Hence they will try to find other proofs which may be more correct.
