Your voice is so chill. You're like the Bob Ross of math.

0:52 - a good way to notate the negative symbol is to understand that the negative means from numbers less than the limit value (left to right), whereas the positive symbol notates the numbers greater than the limit value (right to left -opposite of reading)

at 5:29 shouldn't it be -5 instead of 5

[danteroza]

5:28 the limit is negative 5 ;) Great video btw !

is that what all the one-sided limit about???
i mean it wont be any harder?

[treslineas]

what about the previous examples? the previous discontinued graphs that had no limit? if this is applied do they have limits?

[virginiayu]

Thanks! (What grade is this on Kahn Academy?)

[pasta_sauce]

When the limit of both left and side are not equal doesn't that also mean that the function is not continued

[pianolearnen]

What is the limit as x -> 0 from the right of [-2x + 1]? the answer is 0 apparently but i keep getting 1.

[iSayMonica]

I thought that limits don't exist at sharp points?
