SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on solving advanced calculus problems, specifically finding horizontal asymptotes for the function $$g(x) = \frac{|f(x)|}{x-2}$$ under the condition that $$f(x)$$ satisfies the inequality $$f(x+1) \le x \le f(x)+1$$. Additionally, it addresses the limit of a differentiable function $$f$$ at zero, demonstrating that $$\lim_{{x}\to{0}} \frac{1}{x} ( f(x) + f(\frac{x}{2}) + ... + f(\frac{x}{n}) ) = (1 + \frac{1}{2} + ... + \frac{1}{n} ) f'(x)$$ for natural numbers $$n$$. These problems require a solid understanding of limits, differentiability, and asymptotic behavior.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of horizontal asymptotes in calculus
  • Knowledge of limits and continuity
  • Familiarity with differentiable functions and their properties
  • Proficiency in mathematical inequalities and their implications
NEXT STEPS
  • Study the concept of horizontal asymptotes in detail

1. Find the horizontal asymptotes of the graph of the function $$g(x) = \frac{|f(x)|}{x-2}$$ if $$f(x)$$ satisfies inequality $$f(x+1) \le x \le f(x)+1$$ for every real $$x$$.

2. Let $$f: R->R$$ be a function that is differentiable at zero and such that $$f(0) = 0$$. Show that for each $$n\in\mathbb{N}$$ we have that

$$\lim_{{x}\to{0}} \frac{1}{x} ( f(x) + f(\frac{x}{2}) + ... + f(\frac{x}{n}) ) = (1 + \frac{1}{2} + ... + \frac{1}{n} ) f'(x)$$
