To two decimal places, find the value of k that will make the function f(x) continuous everywhere. f of x equals the quantity 3x
+ k for x less than or equal to -4 and is equal to kx^2 - 5 for x greater than -4
11.00
-2.47
-0.47
None of these
1 answer:
Given function is

now we need to find the value of k such that function f(x) continuous everywhere.
We know that any function f(x) is continuous at point x=a if left hand limit and right hand limits at the point x=a are equal.
So we just need to find both left and right hand limits then set equal to each other to find the value of k
To find the left hand limit (LHD) we plug x=-4 into 3x+k
so LHD= 3(-4)+k
To find the Right hand limit (RHD) we plug x=-4 into

so RHD= 
Now set both equal





k=-0.47
<u>Hence final answer is -0.47.</u>
