  1. Find $Q(x)=|f(x)-L|div|x-c|$


  2. Assume $|x-c|<delta$, so that
    $$|x-c| cdot Q(x)<delta cdot Q(x)$$


  3. $Q(x)$ is of the form, $ax^n+bx^n-1+dx^n-2+ ...$, so, applying the Triangle Inequality,
    $$delta cdot Q(x) = delta cdot (ax^n+bx^n-1+dx^n-2+ ...) le delta cdot (|a||x|^n+|b||x|^n-1+|d||x|^n-2+ ...)$$


  4. Assume $|x-c|<1$, so that
    $$-1<x-c<1 implies c-1<x<c+1 implies |x| < M = maxc-1$$

  5. Then,
    $$delta cdot (a|x|^n+b|x|^n-1+d|x|^n-2+ ...) lt delta cdot (aM^n+bM^n-1+dM^n-2+ ...) = delta cdot K$$

  6. Set $delta=max1, epsilon/K$.

Have I made any glaring mistakes here?
