Limit of $(x^3 - 3x^2 + 2x)$ as $x \to 1$ using epsilon delta definition I need to prove the following limit using epsilon delta method. I have come up this on my own just to practice skills.
$$\lim \limits_{x \to 1} \,(x^3 - 3x^2 + 2x) = 0 $$
So, I need to come up with some $\delta >0$ such that given $0 < \lvert x - 1 \rvert <\delta$, I need to prove that
$$ |(x^3 - 3x^2 + 2x) - 0| < \varepsilon \tag{1}$$
I can simplify eq $1$ as follows.
$$ |x| |x-1||x-2| < \varepsilon $$
When we have a non linear term, then we restrict $x$ to some distance from $1$. So, suppose we have
$ 0 < |x-1| < 10$. This leads to $-10 < x-1 < 10$. Doing some algebra, we can get inequalities
$$ 0 \leqslant |x| < 11 \tag{2}$$
$$ 0 \leqslant |x-2| < 11 \tag{3}$$
From eq 2 and 3, it follows that
$$ 0 \leqslant |x||x-2| < 121 $$
And since $0 < |x-1| $, it follows that
$$ |x||x-1||x-2| < 121 |x-1| \tag{4}$$
To show that $|x||x-1||x-2| < \varepsilon$ , its sufficient to show that $ 121 |x-1| < \varepsilon$. And this will happen if $ |x-1| < \frac{\varepsilon}{121} $. So, this is another restriction on $|x-1|$. So, we can let
$$\delta = \text{min}\left(10, \frac{\varepsilon}{121}\right) $$
So, we can let this be our choice of $\delta$. Its clear that $\delta > 0$. So, now the official proof will follow.
Let $\varepsilon > 0$ be some arbitrary real. Suppose $0 < |x-1| < \delta$. With the choice of $\delta$ we have done, this means that $ 0 < |x-1| < 10$. As demonstrated above, equation 4 follows from this inequality
$$ |x||x-1||x-2| < 121 |x-1| $$
But now, we also have $ |x-1| < \frac{\varepsilon}{121} $. It means that $ 121 |x-1| < \varepsilon $. Using this, we get that
$$ |x||x-1||x-2| < \varepsilon  $$
which can be rewritten as
$$ | (x^3 - 3x^2 + 2x) - 0 | < \varepsilon  $$
Since, $\varepsilon > 0$ was arbitrary to begin with, its proven that
$$\lim \limits_{x \to 1} \,(x^3 - 3x^2 + 2x) = 0 $$
Is the proof correct ?

Other methode which easier
$f(x) =x^3 - 3x^2 +2x$
Suppose $|f(x)-l|<\epsilon $
Let's show $|x-1|<\alpha$
$|f(x)-l|=|f(x)-0|=|x^3 - 3x^2 +2x|<\epsilon $
$|x^3 - 3x^2 +2x|=|x^2-2x|×|x-1|<\epsilon $
Suppose $x\in [\frac{1}{2}, \frac{3} {2}]$
$\Rightarrow $$   \frac{1} {4}\leq x^2 \leq \frac{9}{4}$
And
$-3\leq-2x\leq - 1$
So :
$\frac{-11} {4}\leq x^2-2x \leq \frac{5}{4}<\frac{11}{4}$$\Rightarrow $$|x^2 - 2x|\leq\frac{11}{4}$
$\Rightarrow $$|x^2 - 2x||x-1|\leq\frac{11}{4}|x-1|$
We know
$|x^2-2x|×|x-1|<\epsilon$
So $\frac{11}{4}|x-1|<\epsilon $$\Rightarrow $$|x-1|<\frac{4\epsilon }{1 1} $
Pose
$\alpha =\frac{4\epsilon }{1 1} $
So we can see $|x-1|<\alpha$
Finally:
After the definition of limite we showed $lim_{x\to 1} x^3 - 3x^2 +2x=0$
