Guess the limit (if it exists) by evaluating the function for x = 2.1, 2.001, 1.9 and
1.99.First check that substituting x = 2 gives the indeterminate form .
Guess the limit (if it exists) by evaluating the function for x = 0.5, 0.01 and x =
-0.5, -0.01. First check that substituting x = 0 gives you the indeterminate form .
