Answer

If limxf(x)=- then for all M>0there is some N>0 such that if xN, then f(x)-,M .

1Step 1. Given information.

The given function is limxf(x)=-.

2Step 2. Explanation.

From the given expression, we have, c=, L=-.

The limit expression can be written as a formal statement as below,

For all M>0, there is some N>0 such that if,

xN, then f(x)-,M .

3Step 3. Statement.

Therefore, statement will be written as: 

If limxf(x)=- then for allM>0, there is some N>0 such that if,

xN, then f(x)-,M .
