Math Problem Statement
Find lim_{x→0}(2g(x)), where g(x) is a piecewise function given graphically.
Solution
We are asked to find , based on the given graph of .
Steps:
-
Evaluate :
- As approaches 0 from both the left and right, the value of approaches 1, as indicated by the open circle at with .
-
Apply the constant multiple rule for limits:
- Since , we can use the constant multiple rule to find:
Thus, the correct answer is B) 2.
