Question
Show that $\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow2^-}\ \frac{\text{x}}{[\text{x}]}\ne\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow2^+}\frac{\text{x}}{[\text{a}]}.$

Answer

$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow2^-}\ \frac{\text{x}}{[\text{x}]}$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow2^-}\ \frac{\text{x}}{1}=\frac{2}{1}=2$ $\bigg[\because\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow\text{k}^-}\ [\text{x}]=\text{k}-1\bigg]$
Also,
$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow2^+}\frac{\text{x}}{[\text{x}]}=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow2^-}\frac{\text{x}}{3}=\frac23$ $\bigg[\because\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow\text{k}^+}\ [\text{x}]=\text{k}+1\bigg]$
$\Rightarrow\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow2^-}\ \frac{\text{x}}{[\text{x}]}\ne\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow2^+}\frac{\text{x}}{[\text{x}]}$
