Question

Evaluate the piecewise function at the given values of the independent variable $\begin{aligned} h(x) = \begin{cases} \frac{x^2 - 4}{x - 2} & \text{if } x \neq 2\\ 2 & \text{if } x = 2 \end{cases} \end{aligned}$ (a) h(3) (b) h(0) (c) h(2) (a) h(3) = \boxed{ }

          Evaluate the piecewise function at the given values of the independent variable
$\begin{aligned} h(x) = \begin{cases} \frac{x^2 - 4}{x - 2} & \text{if } x \neq 2\\ 2 & \text{if } x = 2 \end{cases} \end{aligned}$
(a) h(3)
(b) h(0)
(c) h(2)
(a) h(3) = \boxed{ }

Evaluate the piecewise function at the given values of the independent variable
h(x) = (x^2 - 4)/(x - 2) if x ≠ 2
2 if x = 2
(a) h(3)
(b) h(0)
(c) h(2)
(a) h(3) =
