The value expected from points to the left of a is the:
AWhole hand limit
BLeft hand limit
CRight hand limit
DMiddle hand limit
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Left hand limit
1. Values of the function are read as x nears a from below.
2. The value they head towards is what is wanted.
3. That is the left hand limit at a.
