This is a Spivak's Problem, and we can read the solution at the end of the book with epsilon-delta definition. Suppose that x → 0 lim f ( x ) = L Define g ( x ) = f ( x − a ) Note that x → a lim g ( x ) = L ⟺ h → 0 lim g ( a + h ) = L Therefore: h → 0 lim g ( a + h ) = h → 0 lim f ( a + h − a ) = h → 0 lim f ( h ) But lim h → 0 f ( h ) exists and is L , we can conclude that lim x → a g ( x ) = L
If the solution is wrong, comment.
