6. If x4 ≤ f (x) ≤ x2 for x in [−1, 1] and x2 ≤ f (x) ≤ x4 for x < −1 and x > 1,

(a) at what points c do you automatically know lim f (x)? (3 pts)

x→c

(b) What can you say about the value of the limit at these points? (2pts )

Solution: lim f (x) exists at those points c where lim x4 = lim x2 . Thus, c4 = c2 ⇒ c2 (1 − c2 ) =
x→c x→c x→c
0 ⇒ c = 0, 1 or −1.
Moreover, lim f (x) = lim x2 = 0 and lim f (x) = lim f (x) = 1.
