Limits From Tables

This document contains a math worksheet with problems involving limits. Problem 1 has students calculate limits of three functions as x approaches 3 from both sides and directly. Problem 2 involves using a graph to find six different limits. Problem 3 defines a piecewise function and asks students to sketch its graph and find three limits. Problem 4 has students calculate nine different limits of various functions.
