Math Problem Statement
Over which intervals is h continuous?
Solution
In this graph of function , we can observe the following:
- The dashed lines represent asymptotes, which are points where the function is not defined.
- There are breaks or jumps in the graph, indicating points of discontinuity.
Interval Analysis for Continuity:
-
From :
- The function appears continuous from to . However, at , there is a jump discontinuity (a gap in the graph). Therefore, the function is not continuous over the entire interval .
-
From :
- From to , the function is continuous without any breaks or gaps. So, the function is continuous over this interval.
Thus, the correct answer is B: .

Tip: When determining the continuity of a function from a graph, focus on any points where the graph is broken or has jumps, as these indicate discontinuities.
