oh sorry
12,860
117
[]
student
thats how my As look
12,860
118
[]
student
sorry
12,860
119
[]
volunteer
i read your a as 2
12,860
120
[]
volunteer
myf
12,860
121
[]
volunteer
no i just read it wrong
12,860
122
[]
volunteer
not ur mistake
12,860
123
[]
volunteer
so the problem here is that when subbing in a, we get an inderminate form
12,860
124
[]
volunteer
0/0
12,860
125
[]
volunteer
that means that we need to do some algebra to get our answer
12,860
126
[]
volunteer
how can we simplify the denominator?
12,860
127
[]
student
oh... i guess i just gave up and said 0
12,860
128
[]
student
cross the a's out
12,860
129
[]
volunteer
well these types of limits are the harder ones so no worries
12,860
130
[]
volunteer
well we cant quite cross out a
12,860
131
[]
volunteer
since we are subtracting a in the top and adding a in the bottom
12,860
132
[]
volunteer
if they were both subtracting or both adding we could cancel both of those terms entirely
12,860
133
[]
volunteer
but we cant do that here
12,860
134
[]
volunteer
instead, why dont we multiply the denominator and numerator by (x+a)/(x-a)
12,860
135
[]
volunteer
that would get rid of the denominator completely
12,860
136
[]
volunteer
yup!
12,860
137
[]
volunteer
now we can do one more thing to make our work easier
12,860
138
[]
student
foil?
12,860
139
[]
volunteer
thats one method
12,860
140
[]
volunteer
but not quite fiol
12,860
141
[]
volunteer
its more like distribution
12,860
142
[]
volunteer
since its just one big term
12,860
143
[]
volunteer
but we can do this another way to avoid messy work
12,860
144
[]
volunteer
do you think you can see it?
12,860
145
[]
volunteer
if not just tell me, its all fine
12,860
146
[]
student
yes
12,860
147
[]
volunteer
not quite
12,860
148
[]
volunteer
what I saw is that we can combine x/a and -1 into one fraction
12,860
149
[]
volunteer
do you think that could be useful for our expression?
12,860
150
[]
student
yes
12,860
151
[]
volunteer
great! show me how this could be sued
12,860
152
[]
volunteer
used*
12,860
153
[]
volunteer
yea!!!
12,860
154
[]
volunteer
well
12,860
155
[]
volunteer
dont forget about the a at the bottom
12,860
156
[]
volunteer
nice!
12,860
157
[]
volunteer
now one more thing
12,860
158
[]
volunteer
what are we missing on our expression?
12,860
159
[]
volunteer
oh we cant cancel out our a
12,860
160
[]
volunteer
the reason being is that the term on the top is x + a and at the bottom it is a
12,860
161
[]
volunteer
there is no factor of a on both bottom and top
12,860
162
[]
volunteer
so nothing is cancelable
12,860
163
[]
volunteer
but we are missing something important
12,860
164
[]
volunteer
hint: look at the left of the expression in the original expression
12,860
165
[]
student
a negative
12,860
166
[]
volunteer
not really
12,860
167
[]
volunteer
its a shortened version of an english words
12,860
168
[]
volunteer
word*
12,860
169
[]
student
can you see what i wrote in orange a little lowr?
12,860
170
[]
volunteer
oh i see it now
12,860
171
[]
volunteer
yea thats right!
12,860
172
[]
volunteer
so what would that be?
12,860
173
[]
student
isnt that all I have to do?
12,860
174
[]
volunteer
well we have to find the actual value
12,860
175
[]
volunteer
since its asking for the limit
12,860
176
[]
student
do I just make up a number
12,860
177
[]
student
or put 0?
12,860
178
[]
volunteer
well no, we can use substitution here
12,860
179
[]
student
with the a?
12,860
180
[]
volunteer
reason being is that when we plug in a, we dont get an indeterminate form
12,860
181
[]
volunteer
yes
12,860
182
[]
student
but wouldn't it be the same.
12,860
183
[]
volunteer
wdym
12,860
184
[]
student
ohhh! pput the a into the x
12,860
185
[]
volunteer
yea
12,860
186
[]
volunteer
u got it!
12,860
187
[]
volunteer
since we subbed in a for x, we no longer need the limit notation
12,860
188
[]
volunteer
also what is 2a/a simplified?
12,860
189
[]
student
1?
12,860
190
[]
student
2
12,860
191
[]
volunteer
yeaa
12,860
192
[]
volunteer
so our final answer would be 2
12,860
193
[]
student
can I write this down super quick
12,860
194
[]
volunteer
write what down?
12,860
195
[]
student
oh just onto a notebook so I don't forget
12,860
196
[]
volunteer
oh yea
12,860
197
[]
volunteer
go for it
12,860
198
[]
volunteer
I can do one more question and then I will have to leave btw
12,860
199
[]
student
could we do 19 then?
12,860
200
[]
student
i put it at the top
12,860
201
[]
volunteer
sure
12,860
202
[]
volunteer
can i eras the whiteboard?
12,860
203
[]
student
yes please
12,860
204
[]
volunteer
great
12,860
205
[]
volunteer
let me write down g(x) rq
12,860
206
[]
student
i got the reduced form, but not the other parts
12,860
207
[]
volunteer
alright
12,860
208
[]
volunteer
so ill just simplify rq
12,860
209
[]
volunteer
alright
12,860
210
[]
volunteer
so where does the y intercept occur?
12,860
211
[]
student
when x=0
12,860
212
[]
volunteer
great!
12,860
213
[]
volunteer
so how can we find the y intercept using this knowledge?
12,860
214
[]
student
do we plug it into the orginal form?
12,860
215
[]
student
0 for x i mean
12,860
216
[]
