Calculus help

OpenStudy (juan1857):

OpenStudy (juan1857):

The function is defined on [-1,3] A) if \[x \neq0\] B) if \[x \neq1\] C)if \[x \neq2\] D if \[x \neq3\] E) at each x in [-1,3]

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Unsure of what type of help you need. Please share the instructions for this problem.

OpenStudy (shawn):

this is a very poorly stated question. The function is clearly isn't defined at x = 1 then it says the function is defined on [-1,3]

OpenStudy (shawn):

anyhow, it would say B.

OpenStudy (juan1857):

yeah I couldn't find the sense of it either, maybe its just a typo

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Still unsure what this question is calling for.

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Why not check with a classmate, if possible? Or, if possible, move on and return to this problem later.

OpenStudy (juan1857):

good idea, thanks

OpenStudy (juan1857):

wait you did see the attached file right?

OpenStudy (juan1857):

before the file it should be stated "for the function f(x)"

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Yes, I saw your attachment, but the instructions are missing. Until you (and then I) know what your goal is, we're not going to get far.

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Are you supposed to graph this function? or ... ?

OpenStudy (juan1857):

I know how to graph it, but I guess it is asking when and how the function would be define on [-1, 3]

OpenStudy (juan1857):

I just think it is poorly written

OpenStudy (shawn):

I suggest you take a snapshot of the WHOLE question.

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Please, let's get away from the "poorly written" commentary. The main problem here is that we don't have a clear set of instructions. You don't want to guess what you're supposed to be doing; you want to KNOW precisely what you're looking for.
