I'm sick of still not getting this. I bombed the epsilon delta part of my mid term. A site where it gives many problems on epsilon delta and solutions would be amazing.

Epsilon delta problems are a type of mathematical problems that involve finding the limit of a function using the epsilon-delta definition of a limit. This definition states that a limit L exists for a function f(x) as x approaches a point c, if for any positive number epsilon, there exists a positive number delta such that the distance between f(x) and L is less than epsilon when the distance between x and c is less than delta.
Epsilon delta problems are important in mathematics because they provide a rigorous and precise way to determine the limit of a function. This is essential in many areas of mathematics and science, such as calculus, analysis, and physics.
There are many websites and online resources that offer a variety of epsilon delta problems for practice. Some popular sites include Khan Academy, Math Stack Exchange, and Paul's Online Math Notes.
To solve an epsilon delta problem, you can follow a step-by-step approach. First, determine the given limit and choose a value for epsilon. Then, use algebraic manipulations to find a value for delta. Finally, check if the distance between f(x) and L is less than epsilon when the distance between x and c is less than delta.
Yes, epsilon delta problems can be used to prove the continuity of a function. If the limit exists for a function f(x) at a point c, and the value of f(c) is equal to the limit, then the function is continuous at that point. This can be shown using the epsilon delta definition of a limit.
