Question

m(x)={8x x<2
x^2-1 x> or equal to 2

lim m(x)=
x arrow>2-

Answer 1

Is the limit the same from the right and from the left?

Answer 2

yes but we are only looking at the negative side 2^-

Answer 3

Oh, then this is continuous? Or isn't it?

Answer 4

I think so then is the answer positive infinty

Answer 5

??

8(0) = 0
8(1) = 8
8(3/2) = 12
8(7/4) = 14
8(15/8) = 15
8(31/16) = 15.5
8(63/32) = 15.75
8(127/64) = 15.875

Definitely not headed for "infinity".

Answer 6

ok so then do youknow the answer?

Answer 7

You said it was continuous. Do we KNOW that or did you just assume it?

Answer 8

The left limit is 16
The right limit is 3

It's not continuous.
