For what value of the constants and is the function continuous for all http://webwork.math.ttu.edu/wwtmp/equations/88/589008922d095f6e8de7c2b31f50bd1.png

OpenStudy (amistre64):

equate the top and bottom to 5 and solve

OpenStudy (amistre64):

at x=0 it all has to equal 5 to be continuous

OpenStudy (amistre64):

since (0,5) is a y intercept; id say b=5

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the top might be a bit more strenuous tho

OpenStudy (amistre64):

sin(ax) = 5x hmmm...

OpenStudy (amistre64):

a in this case is a period adjustment, but how to fit that into the picture

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a=1/5

OpenStudy (amistre64):

whew!! good thing too lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no, it's not , it is 5!!

OpenStudy (amistre64):

make up your mind, :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lim(x->0) sin(5x)/x =5

OpenStudy (amistre64):

yeah, thats what i couldnt get my finger on quite right
