Answer:

Here's a possible example:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) =\begin{cases} x & \quad x < 3\\x+3 & \quad x \geq 3\\\end{cases}

Each piece is linear, so the pieces are continuous by themselves.

We need consider only the point at which the pieces meet (x = 3).

\displaystyle \lim_{x \longrightarrow 3^{-}} f(x) = \lim_{x \longrightarrow 3^{-}} x = 3\\\\\displaystyle \lim_{x \longrightarrow 3^{+}} f(x) = \lim_{x \longrightarrow 3^{+}} x+3 = 6\\\\f(3) = x + 3 = 6\\\\\displaystyle \lim_{x \longrightarrow 3^{-}} f(x) \neq f(3)

The left-hand limit does not equal ƒ(x), so there is a jump discontinuity at x =3.

A contractor purchases ceramic tile to remodel a kitchen floor. Each tile cost $4 and the adhesive/grouting material costs $17.8
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

132 tiles

Step-by-step explanation:

Each tile cost $4

The adhesive/grouting material costs $17.82.

If the contractor pays a total of $545.82

Let the number of tiles be represented as x

The equation is represented as:

$17.82 + $4 × x = $545.82

17.82 + 4x = 545.82

Collect like terms

4x = 545.82 - 17.82

4x = 528

Divide bother sides by 4

4x/4 = 528/4

x = 132

The number of ceramic tiles the contractor bought = 132 tiles
