for it to be continuous, both "sub"-functions need to have the same value at 2. so x^2 - c = 3x + 4c plugging in x = 2 4 - c = 6 + 4c c = -2/5

how did you know to plug in 2, one of the functions x has to be less than 2 and the other has to be bigger than or equal to 2. The answer is correct btw i just want to make sure I understand the question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because were thinking about it in terms of limits. you're plugging in the left limit, or : 1.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 which is 2. there can't be any holes in the function. it's why we observed it around 2
