Sorry, my mistake. I didn't realize that this example is different from the one in post #1. In this example, one function equation works...

That's not really how we are supposed to construct a proof here. Instead, for ##0<\epsilon <1##, we should let: $$\delta =...

The post #15 was my mistake. When ## x\to 2^- ## ## \sqrt[3]{8-\epsilon}-2\lt x-2\lt\sqrt[3]{8+\epsilon}-2 ## does not imply ##...

In general, for a right hand limit at ##a## you are looking for:$$a < x <a +\delta$$And not $$0<|x-a|< \delta$$PS I see this was in the...

Please find below the plots of my understanding the situation. I hope it is not wrong and has some meanings.

I can't say with authority whether part 2 is required. I am not a "proof policeman". If part 1 had stated things differently, like...

You calculated the bounds based on a two-sided limit. Even though you said you were doing a one-sided limit. That's why you ended up...

If you look at his calculations. For ##x > 2##, where the function is quadratic, he includes the case ##x < 2##. Similarly, when ##x...

For two-sided continuity, the limits must be equal. On each side, that delta and any smaller, strictly positive, delta will do. So the...

Although, there should only be one ##\delta## in each set, as we are dealing with a one-sided limit. For example, for the righthand...
