In Problems $19-32,$ determine whether the function $f$ is continuous at $c$. $$ f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{cl} 3 x-1 & \text { if } x<1 \\ 2 & \text { if } x=1 \quad \text { at } c=1 \\ 3 x & \text { if } x>1 \end{array}\right. $$

Continuity
For what value of k will the function f be continuous on (-∞,∞)? f(x) = (x^2 - 1)/(x + 1) if x ≠ -1 k if x = -1
