Continuity and Differentiability Extra questions: 1) If f(x) = is continuous at x = 0‚ find the value of a and b 2) A function f is defined as f(x) = for x 1 = - for x = 1. Show that f(x) is differentiable at x = 1 and find its value 3) Let f(x) = if x 2 = k‚ if x = 2. If f(x) is continuous for all x‚ then find the value of k. 4) Let f(x) be a function of x defined as f(x) = ‚ x 1

LIMITS AND CONTINUITY 1. The concept of limit x2 − 4 . Examine the behavior of f (x) as x approaches 2. Example 1.1. Let f (x) = x−2 Solution. Let us compute some values of f (x) for x close to 2‚ as in the tables below. We see from the first table that f (x) is getting closer and closer to 4 as x approaches 2 from the left side. We express this by saying that “the limit of f (x) as x approaches 2 from left is 4”‚ and write x→2− lim f (x) = 4. Similarly‚ by looking at the second table
