Question

At how many points is this function discontinuous? f(x) =2(x − 1)(x − 4)/(x + 2)(x − 5)
one
two
three
four
five

Answer 1

\[\frac{ 2(x-1)(x-4) }{ (x+2)(x-5) }\]

Answer 2

When is a function discontinuous?

Answer 3

yeah that it. i dont know what it mean??

Answer 4

A function is discontinuous when there is no value present at x = a (where a is some number). This can be seen when the graph of the function has a hole, jumps, or has a vertical asymptote.

Answer 5

im still confused??

Check out this link, it goes into detail about the three types of discontinuities with corresponding graphs. Let me know if you have anymore questions!
