666 • Differential Equations
As usual, the left-hand side simplifies to the derivative of P times the inte-
grating factor:
d
dt
(e
−2t
P ) = −200000e
−2t
t,
or just
e
−2t
P = −200000
Z
e
−2t
t dt.
The right-hand side needs to be integrated by parts (see Section 18.2 in Chap-
ter 18); I leave it to you to show that

−2t
P = 100000te
−2t
+ 50000e
−2t
+ 200000C.
Now we can replace the arbitrary constant 200000C by the equally arbitrary
constant C and multiply through by e
2t
to get
P = 100000t + 50000 + Ce
2t
.
This is the equation for the population of bacteria at time t. If the initial
population is P
0
, then we can set t = 0 in the equation to get
P
0
= 100000(0) + 50000 + Ce
2(0)
= 50000 + C.
This means that C = P
0
−50000, so we can insert that into the equation and
get
P = 100000t + 50000 + (P
0
− 50000)e
2t
.
Great! So we know a lot about the situation. We still have to answer the
question. For what values of P
0
will we ever get down to a population of 0?
It seems that 50000 is a pretty critical number. Indeed, if P
0
= 50000, the
above equation is just P = 100000t + 50000; in that case, the bacteria start
at 50000 and grow at a constant rate of 100000 per hour, so the population
never dies. If P
0
> 50000, then you add a positive multiple of e
2t
to this and
so the population grows even faster. How about if P
0
< 50000? Then the
quantity P
0
− 50000 is negative, so we have
P = 100000t + 50000 + (negative constant)e
2t
.
Since exponentials eventually dominate, it’s a sure thing that if t is large
enough, P will eventually get down to 0. For example, even if the initial
population is 49999, then we have
P = 100000t + 50000 − e
2t
.
Here’s the graph of P versus t in this case:

You can see from the graph that the population grows almost linearly for the
first 5 hours, then there is a rapid turnaround, and finally the population
hits 0 some time between 6.5 and 7 hours. (Of course, once it hits 0, that’s
the end of the story—the population never goes below 0, since you can’t
have a negative population! So the above graph doesn’t accurately reflect the
situation when P < 0.) In general, we conclude that if the initial population
is under 50000, the bacteria will die out, whereas if it is 50000 or more, the
culture will survive; in fact, it will always grow in that case.

Limits and Proofs
Throughout this book we have used limits extensively, in their own right and
also as an essential part of the definitions of the derivative and the integral.
Since limits are so important, it’s about time that we define them properly.
Once we know how they work, we can prove a number of facts that we’ve been
taking for granted. So, here’s what’s in this appendix:
• the formal definition of a limit (including left-hand and right-hand limits,
infinite limits, limits at ±∞, and limits of sequences);
• combining limits, and a proof of the sandwich principle;
• the relationship between continuity and limits, including a proof of the
Intermediate Value Theorem;
• differentiation and limits, including proofs of the product, quotient, and
chain rules;
• a proof of a result concerning piecewise-defined functions and derivatives;
• a proof of the existence of e;
• proofs of the Extreme Value Theorem, Rolle’s Theorem, the Mean Value
Theorem (for derivatives), the formula for the error term in linearization,
and l’Hˆopital’s Rule; and
• a proof of the Taylor approximation theorem.
A.1 Formal Definition of a Limit
We start with a function f and a real number a. In Section 3.1 of Chapter 3
we introduced the notation
lim
x→a
f(x) = L,
which is used throughout this book. Intuitively, the above equation means
that when x is close to a, the values of f(x) get very very close to L. How
close? As close as you want them to be. To see what this means, let’s play a
little game, you and I.
670 • Limits and Proofs
A.1.1 A little game
Here’s how the game works. Your move consists of picking an interval on
the y-axis with L in the middle. You get to draw lines parallel to the x-axis
through the endpoints of your interval. Here’s an example of what your move
might be:

Notice that I labeled the endpoints of the interval L − ε and L + ε. So both
endpoints are a distance ε away from L.
Anyway, the point is, you can’t tolerate any bit of the function being
outside those two horizontal lines. My move, then, is to throw away some of
the function by restricting the domain. I just have to make sure that the new
domain is an interval with a at the center, and that every bit of the function
remaining lies between your lines, except possibly at x = a itself. Here’s one
way I could make my move, based on the move you just made:

So once again I was able to make a move to counter your move.
When does the game stop? Hopefully, the answer is never! If I can always
move, no matter how close together you make the lines, then it will indeed
be true that lim
x →a
f(x) = L. We will have zoomed in and in, you pushing your
lines closer together, I responding by focusing only on the part of the function
672 • Limits and Proofs
close enough to x = a. On the other hand, if I ever get stuck for a move, then
it’s not true that lim
x →a
f(x) = L. The limit might be something else, or it may
not exist, but it’s definitely not L.
A.1.2 The actual definition
We need to turn the game into some more symbols. First, notice the interval
you choose is (L −ε, L + ε). In fact, you can also think of that interval as the
set of points y satisfying |y − L| < ε. Why? Because |y − L| is the distance
between y and L on a number line (such as the y-axis). So your interval
consists of all the points which are less than ε away from L. As you might
guess, it will be incredibly useful for you to be able to convert an inequality
like |y − L| < ε into its equivalent form L − ε < y < L + ε and back again.
Now it’s my move. I always need the function to lie in your interval. This
means that after I’ve thrown away a lot of the domain, all the remaining
values of f(x) must be less than ε away from L. So after my move, you’ll
have to conclude that
|f(x) − L| < ε for all x 6= a which are close enough to a.
To be more precise about my move, notice that I am throwing away everything
except in an interval centered at a. My interval looks like (a − δ, a + δ) for
some other number δ, so I can also think of it as all the numbers x such
that |x − a| < δ. In fact, since I don’t want x to be equal to a, I can write
0 < |x − a| < δ.
In summary, then, your move consists of picking ε > 0. (It had better
be positive or else there’s no tolerance window at all!) My move consists of
picking a number δ > 0 such that
|f(x) − L| < ε for all x satisfying 0 < |x − a| < δ.
Remember, this means that whenever x is no more than a distance δ away
from a (except for a itself), the value of f(x) is no more than a distance of ε
away from L. This quantifies the idea that f (x) is close to L when x is close
to a. Now all that’s left is to allow you to make your choice of ε as small
as you like, and I still have to pick the δ accordingly. So, here’s the formal
definition we’re looking for:
“lim
x →a
f(x) = L” means that for any choice of ε > 0
you make, I can pick δ > 0 such that:
|f(x) − L| < ε for all x satisfying 0 < |x − a| < δ.
It’s very important that I get to move after you do! My choice of δ depends
on your choice of ε. Normally I can’t make a universal choice of δ that works
for every ε > 0. I just have to adapt to your choice.
A.1.3 Examples of using the definition
As a simple example, let’s show, without using continuity, that

Section A.1.3: Examples of using the definition • 673
Tempting as it is to write 3
2
= 9 and declare victory, that doesn’t work
because the limit only depends on what happens when x is near, but not
equal to, 3. So, we have to play our little game. You choose your ε > 0, which
makes a little window (9 − ε, 9 + ε) that I have to stay within. Now I get
to pick my δ. Suppose that your ε is 8, which is humongous in this context.
Then your window is (1, 17). Well, I can easily stay in there by choosing my
δ = 1, which means that my window is (2, 4). (Remember, my window is
centered at 3, while yours is centered at 9.) Indeed, if you square any number
between 2 and 4, you get a number between 4 and 16, so my move is fine. If
your ε is even bigger than 8, well, that just widens your interval, but I’ll stick
with my δ = 1 and be just fine.
Now, if you choose your tolerance ε less than 8, I have to change my tactic.
My choice in this case will be . . . drumroll . . . δ = ε/8. That is, I’m making
my window eight times smaller than yours, no matter how wide you choose
it. To see that this works, we have to be clever. Basically, we have to take
any number in my interval, square it, and show that it lies in your interval.
My interval is (3 − ε/8, 3 + ε/8) and yours is (9 − ε, 9 + ε).
So let’s pick x in my interval. How big could it be? It’s got to be less
than 3 + ε/8. That is, x < 3 + ε/8, which you can also write as x − 3 < ε/8.
By the way, since your ε is less than 8, my x is less than 4. So, using both
inequalities x − 3 < ε/8 and x < 4, we get
(x − 3)(x + 3) <
ε
8
(4 + 3) =
7ε
8
.
Since (x −3)(x + 3) is just x
2
−9, we can add 9 to both sides of the equation
and see that
x
2
< 9 +
7ε
8
.
So we’re OK on the upper tolerance level (the upper of your two lines). We
needed x
2
< 9 + ε, and we have done that. How about the lower one? Well,
how small could my x be, given that it lies in my interval (3 − ε/8, 3 + ε/8)?
It’s got to be bigger than 3 − ε/8, so we have x > 3 − ε/8. This means that
x − 3 > −ε/8. Since your ε is less than 8, we also have x − 3 > −8/8 = −1,
which means that x > 2. Again, using both inequalities x − 3 > −ε/8 and
x > 2, we get
(x − 3)(x + 3) >
−
ε
8
(2 + 3) = −
5ε
8
.
Once again, (x − 3)(x + 3) = x
2
− 9, so we add 9 to both sides and get
x
2
> 9 −
5ε
8
.
This takes care of the lower tolerance level! We have shown that if x lies in
the interval (3 − ε/8, 3 + ε/8), then x
2
is in the interval (9 − 5ε/8, 9 + 7ε/8).
Since both 5/8 and 7/8 are less than 1, we can also confidently say that x
2
is
in the interval (9 − ε, 9 + ε); after all, this interval contains the other one.
Tying it all together, let’s set f(x) = x
2
, and we’ll justify the equation
lim
x→3
f(x) = 9.
674 • Limits and Proofs
You choose ε, and I respond by picking δ = ε/8 unless your ε is 8 or more,
in which case I just pick δ = 1. We have shown that in either case, if x is in
the interval (3 − δ, 3 + δ), then f(x) is in the interval (9 − ε, 9 + ε). In other
words, whenever |x − 3| < δ, then |f(x) − 9| < ε. We can also exclude x = 3
if we like and say that if 0 < |x − 3| < δ, then |f (x) − 9| < ε. This is exactly
what we need—we have justified our equation. Believe it or not, that’s pretty
much what you have to do if you want to prove that the above limit is true
by using the definition!
A.2 Making New Limits from Old Ones
That last example was pretty annoying. Just to show that x
2
→ 9 as x → 3,
we had to do a lot of work. Luckily it turns out that once you know a couple
of limits, you can put them together and get a whole bunch of new ones. For
example, you can add, subtract, multiply, and divide limits within reason,
and there’s also the sandwich principle. Let’s see why all this is true.
A.2.1 Sums and differences of limits—proofs
Suppose that we have two functions f and g, and we know that as x → a, we
have f(x) → L and g(x) → M . What should happen to f(x)+g(x) as x → a?
Intuitively, it should tend to L + M . Let’s prove this using the definition. So,
we know that
lim
x→a
f(x) = L and lim
x→a
g(x) = M.
This means that if you pick ε > 0, I can ensure that |f(x) − L| < ε by
restricting x close enough to a. I can also ensure that |g(x) − M | < ε if x
is close enough to a. The degrees of closeness that I need might be different
for f and g, but it doesn’t matter—I can just go close enough so that both
inequalities work.
Now, if f(x)+g(x) is close to L+M , this means that the difference between
these things should be small. So we’ll need to worry about the quantity
|(f(x) + g(x)) − (L + M)|. We’ll write this as |(f(x) − L) + (g(x) −M)|. We
can then use the so-called triangle inequality, which says
∗
that |a+b| ≤ |a|+|b|
for any numbers a and b, as follows:
|(f(x) − L) + (g(x) − M )| ≤ |f(x) − L| + |g(x) − M| < ε + ε = 2ε,
provided that x is close enough to a. This is almost good enough, except
that you wanted a tolerance of ε, not 2ε! So I have to make my move again
∗
Since we’re proving stuff, here’s a proof of the triangle inequality. We start off with
the observation that x ≤ |x| for any number x. Indeed, if x is positive or 0, then x = |x|;
otherwise, the left-hand side is negative and the right-hand side is positive. Replace x by
ab to get ab ≤ |ab| = |a| · |b|. Now multiply this by 2 and add a
2
+ b
2
to both sides. We
get a
2
+ b
2
+ 2ab ≤ a
2
+ b
2
+ 2|a| · |b|. The left-hand side is just (a + b)
2
. Since x
2
= |x|
2
for any x, we can replace the left-hand side by |a + b|
2
. Similarly, on the right we have
|a|
2
+|b|
2
+2|a|·|b|, or just (|a|+|b|)
2
. Altogether then, our inequality is |a+b|
2
≤ (|a|+|b|)
2
.
Now we just have to take square roots and we’re done, since |a + b| and |a| + |b| are both
nonnegative.
Section A.2.2: Products of limits—proof • 675
(sorry about that); this time I’ll narrow my focus so that both |f(x) −L| and
|g(x) − M| are less than ε/2 instead of ε. This is no problem, since I can
deal with any positive number that you pick. Anyway, if you redo the above
equation, you’ll get ε on the right instead of ε/2, so we have proven that I
can find a little window about x = a such that
|(f(x) + g(x)) − (L + M )| < ε
whenever x is in my window. (You can use δ if you like to describe the
window better, but that doesn’t really get us anything extra.) So this proves
the following:
if lim
x→a
f(x) = L and lim
x→a
g(x) = M, then lim
x→a
(f(x) +g(x)) = L + M.
That is, the limit of the sum is the sum of the limits. Another way of writing
this is
lim
x→a
(f(x) + g(x)) = lim
x→a
f(x) + lim
x→a
g(x),
but here you have to be careful to check that both limits on the right exist
and are finite. If either limit is ±∞ or doesn’t exist, the deal’s off. Both
limits have to be finite to guarantee that you can add them up. You might
get lucky if they’re not, but there’s no guarantee.
How about f(x) − g(x)? That should go to L − M, and it does:
if lim
x→a
f(x) = L and lim
x→a
g(x) = M, then lim
x→a
(f(x) −g(x)) = L −M.
The proof is almost identical to the one we just looked at, except that you
need a slightly different form of the triangle inequality: |a − b| ≤ |a| + |b|.
Actually, this is just the triangle inequality applied to a and −b; indeed,
|a + (−b)| ≤ |a| + |−b|, but of course |−b| is equal to |b|. I leave it to you to

rewrite the above argument but change the plus signs between f(x) and g(x),
and between L and M, into minus signs.
A.2.2 Products of limits—proof
Now we once again assume that we have two functions f and g such that
lim
x→a
f(x) = L and lim
x→a
g(x) = M.
We want to show that
lim
x→a
f(x)g(x) = LM.
That is, the limit of the product is the product of the limits. Another way of
writing this is
lim
x→a
f(x)g(x) = lim
x→a
f(x) × lim
x→a
g(x),
again with the understanding that both limits on the right-hand side are
already known to exist and be finite. To prove this, we need to show that
the difference between f(x)g(x) and the (hopeful) limit LM is small. Let’s
consider that difference f(x)g(x) − LM . The trick is to subtract Lg(x) and
add it back on again! That is,
f(x)g(x) − LM = f(x)g(x) − Lg(x) + Lg(x) − LM.
