Hello,  in Calculus,  if we talk about the limits of functions,

the chain of events and the direction of thoughts is  DIFFERENT:

        we first assign epsilon,  and then try to find delta.


Then the logic is straightforward,  clear, understandable and coincides with the logic of the definition of a limit.


Here you ask about opposite move:   you consider delta as given and ask about epsilon.


Again:  it is  OPPOSITE  to routine calculus consideration.


So,  I really do not understand the meaning of this exercise:   Is it designed to confuse a reader / (a student) ?
