By the end of this section, you will be able to:

 Determine the limit of a function at 𝑥 = 𝑎 by looking at the graph of the function.
 Find the limit of a function at 𝑥 = 𝑎 by analyzing the values of the function for values near 𝑎.
 Compute the limit of a function at 𝑥 = 𝑎 algebraically using the limit laws.
 Compute a limit using the Squeeze Theorem
 Find the discontinuities of a function from its graph.
 Find the discontinuities of a function from its equation using limits.
 Find the discontinuities of a piecewise function.
 Use the Intermediate Value Theorem to approximate the location of a root of a function.
 Use the Intermediate Value Theorem to find a lower bound on the number of roots of a function.
 Compute the limit of a function to infinity algebraically.
 Determine the equations of any asymptotes of a function.
 Compute the average rate of change of a function over a specified interval.
 Compute the instantaneous rate of change of a function at a given point.
 Determine the equation of a tangent line to a function at a given point.
 Compute the derivative of a function at a given point.
