If the two one sided limits differ, the limit at that point:
AEquals the left
BEquals the right
CEquals to zero
DDoes not exist
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Does not exist
1. The two sides disagree about what value is expected.
2. No single common value can be picked.
3. So the limit does not exist at that point.
