Solution 1

To find the limit of the given function as x approaches 0.2, we can simply substitute 0.2 into the function because it is a continuous function at x = 0.2.

The function is: |5x^3 - x^2| - 5x - 1

Substitute x = 0.2 into the function:

= |5*(0.2)^3 - (0.2)^2| - 5*0.2 - 1 = |0.040 - 0.04| - 1 - 1 = |0| - 2 = 0 - 2 = -2

So, the limit of the function as x approaches 0.2 is -2.

Solution 2

To find the limit of the given function as x approaches 0.2, we can simply substitute 0.2 into the function because the function is continuous at x = 0.2.

The function is: |5x^3 - x^2| - 5x - 1

Substitute x = 0.2 into the function:

= |5*(0.2)^3 - (0.2)^2| - 5*0.2 - 1 = |0.040 - 0.04| - 1 - 1 = |0| - 2 = 0 - 2 = -2

So, the limit of the function as x approaches 0.2 is -2.
