1、Chapter1 Functions(函数)1.Definition 1)Afunctionf is a rule that assigns to each element x in a set A exactly one element, called f(x), in a set B.2)The set A is called the domain(定义域) of the function.3)The range(值域)of f is the set of all possible values of f(x) as x varies through out the domain.2.Ba

7、nuity1.Definition We write and say “f(x) approaches(tends to趋向于) L as x tends to a ”if we can make the values of f(x) arbitrarily(任意地) close to L by taking x to be sufficiently(足够地) close to a(on either side of a) but not equal to a.Note means that in finding the limit of f(x) as x tends to a, we ne

8、ver consider x=a.In fact, f(x) need not even be defined when x=a. The only thing that matters is how f is defined near a.2.Limit LawsSuppose that c is a constant and the limitsexist. ThenNoteFrom 2), we have3. 1)2)Note4.One-Sided Limits1)left-hand limitDefinition We write and say “f(x) tends to L as

9、 x tends to a from left ”if we can make the values of f(x) arbitrarily close to L by taking x to be sufficiently close to a and x less than a.2)right-hand limitDefinition We write and say “f(x) tends to L as x tends to a from right ”if we can make the values of f(x) arbitrarily close to L by taking x to be sufficiently close to a and x greater than a.5.TheoremSolutionSolution6.Infinitesimals(无穷小量) and infinities(无穷大量)1)Definition We say f(x) is an infinitesimal as is some number or Example1 is an infinitesimal asExample2 is an infinitesimal as2)Theoremand g(x) is bounded.Note Example 3)Defin
