Math Problem Statement
Solution
I see you have uploaded an image containing a function with some questions about continuity. Let me break down the information for you:
Part (a):
The function at has a break, so the condition that fails is:
- Condition 2: does not exist.
This is a discontinuity where the function is not defined at .
Part (b):
At , the function has a hole, meaning:
- Condition 3: fails. The limit exists but does not match the value of the function at that point.
Part (c):
At , the function is continuous:
- is continuous.
The limit at exists, the function value is defined at , and the limit matches the function value.
Would you like further clarification on any of these results, or do you have other questions? Here are some follow-up questions:
- What does it mean for a function to be continuous at a point?
- How do you visually identify discontinuities from a graph?
- What are the three conditions of continuity?
- How can we fix discontinuities in a function?
- What are some real-world examples of functions that might have discontinuities?
Tip: To check for continuity, always verify if the function is defined at a point and whether the limit matches the function value at that point.
