Math Problem Statement
Solution
From the graph, we need to find the value of .
Looking at the function graph, corresponds to the value of the function at . The graph shows that at , the function has a point of discontinuity, with two different values approaching from the left and right.
The left-side limit as approaches is , and the right-side limit as approaches is , as indicated in your results for the limits. However, the function itself appears not to be defined at as the overall limit does not exist and there's a visible gap at .
Therefore, is not defined (DNE) due to this discontinuity at .
Would you like to know more details or have any other questions? Here are a few follow-up topics you might consider:
- What causes a function to have a discontinuity?
- How do we calculate limits from a graph?
- What are the different types of discontinuities?
- Can a function have a limit at a point where it is not defined?
- How to find the equation of a piecewise function from a graph?
Tip: When checking for function values or limits from a graph, always confirm if the point is included (filled circle) or excluded (open circle) as it significantly affects the interpretation.
