Question
Find the limit, if it exists. If the limit does not exist, explain why. $ \displaystyle \lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{1}{x} - \frac{1}{|x|} \right) $
Step 1
The absolute value of x, denoted as |x|, is equal to x when x is greater than or equal to zero, and it's equal to -x when x is less than zero. Show more…
