Limits of combined functions | Limits and continuity | AP Calculus AB | Khan Academy

So let’s find the limit of f of x times h of x as x approaches 0. All right, we have graphical depictions of the graphs y equals f of x and y equals h of x. We know from our limit properties that this is going to be the same thing as the limit as x appro…
