    Calculus
    Section 1.7

    You are right. This is too hard for me at this point in my self-study of Calculus. So, this is what I want to take away from this section:

    1. Please, work out 5 more problems from this section beginning with question 20.

    2. Show all steps. This is important for self-study notes should I ever decide to slowly and patiently learn the Delta-Epsilon method in the future.

    3. I cannot allow one section to discourage me from pressing on with the textbook.

    4. Many novice calculus students do purely with the Delta-Epsilon Definition of a Limit but go on to succeed in calculus.

    5. I may ask you to fully work out proofs as we go through the James Stewart textbook. This is simply for future study notes.

    Now, how about question 20?
