OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):
A removable discontinuity is a point on the graph that is undefined or does not fit the rest of the graph. There is a gap at that location when you are looking at the graph.
OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):
@3mar am i right please help
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
Well if you factor the numerator you can cancel the x-2, right?
OpenStudy (3mar):
Not it is not A
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
$$\Huge x^2 -4 = x^2 -2^2 = (x+2)(x-2)$$

That leaves f(x) = x + 2
but x is not equal to 2 <----that makes the discontinuity "removable" by stating $$x \ne 2$$
