Use the definition of continuity to determine whether f is continuous at a. $\begin{aligned} f(x) = \begin{cases} \frac{x^2 - 100}{x - 10} & \text{if } x \neq 10\\ 4 & \text{if } x = 10 \end{cases} \\ a = 10 \end{aligned}$

Step 1
Step 1: To determine if f is continuous at a=10, we need to check if the limit of f(x) as x approaches 10 exists and is equal to f(10). Show more…

Use the definition of continuity to determine whether $f$ is continuous at a. $$\begin{aligned}&f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll}x-4 & \text { if } x \leq 0 \\x^{2}+x-4 & \text { if } x>0\end{array}\right.\\&a=0\end{aligned}$$
Use the definition of continuity to determine whether $f$ is continuous at a. $$\begin{aligned}&f(x)=x^{2}-5 x+6\\&a=4\end{aligned}$$
