Step 1
A function \( f(x) \) is continuous at a point \( x = a \) if the following three conditions are met: 1. \( f(a) \) exists. 2. \( \lim_{x \to a} f(x) \) exists. 3. \( \lim_{x \to a} f(x) = f(a) \). Show more…

Determine the values of x for which the function f(x) is continuous. If the function is not continuous, determine the reason. Where is the function continuous or not continuous? The function is continuous for all values of x. The function is continuous for all values of x between 0 and 2. The function is not continuous for all values of x greater than 2 or less than 0. Why is the function continuous or not continuous? The function is not continuous because it is not defined for x-values on the interval x < 0. The function is not continuous because it is defined for x-values on the interval x < 0. A small change near x = 2 may produce a large change in f(x). The function exists for all points and any small change in x produces only a small change in f(x). The function does not exist at the point x = 2.

Is the function given below continuous at x = 8? Why or why not? f(x) = 7x - 8 Is f(x) = 7x - 8 continuous at x = 8? Why or why not? A. Yes, f(x) is continuous at x = 8 because lim f(x) is equal to f(8). B. No, f(x) is not continuous at x = 8 because lim f(x) and f(8) do not exist. C. Yes, f(x) is continuous at x = 8 because f(8) exists. D. No, f(x) is not continuous at x = 8 because lim f(x) is not equal to f(8).
