For a function to be continuous at an x-value, say -17, you need to make sure two things line up:
The limit from the left equals the limit from the right.

This limit equals the functions value.

The left hand limit involves the first piece, f(x) = 20x + 1:
![\begin{aligned} \lim_{x \to -17^{-}} f(x) &= \lim_{x \to -17^{-}} (20x+1)\\[0.5em]&= 20(-17)+1\\[0.5em]&= -339\endaligned}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Baligned%7D%20%5Clim_%7Bx%20%5Cto%20-17%5E%7B-%7D%7D%20f%28x%29%20%26%3D%20%20%5Clim_%7Bx%20%5Cto%20-17%5E%7B-%7D%7D%20%2820x%2B1%29%5C%5C%5B0.5em%5D%26%3D%20%20%2020%28-17%29%2B1%5C%5C%5B0.5em%5D%26%3D%20%20%20-339%5Cendaligned%7D)
The right hand limit invovles the second piece, f(x) = -10x^2:
![\begin{aligned} \lim_{x \to -17^{+}} f(x) &= \lim_{x \to -17^{+}} (-10x^2)\\[0.5em]&= -10\cdot (-17)^2\\[0.5em]&= -2890\endaligned}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Baligned%7D%20%5Clim_%7Bx%20%5Cto%20-17%5E%7B%2B%7D%7D%20f%28x%29%20%26%3D%20%20%5Clim_%7Bx%20%5Cto%20-17%5E%7B%2B%7D%7D%20%28-10x%5E2%29%5C%5C%5B0.5em%5D%26%3D%20%20%20-10%5Ccdot%20%28-17%29%5E2%5C%5C%5B0.5em%5D%26%3D%20%20%20-2890%5Cendaligned%7D)
Since the two one-sided limits don't match, the function is not continuous at x=-17.
A and b are the minutes spent on machine A and machine B, respectively.
a+b = 40
b = 40-a
8a + 6b = 300
8a + 6(40-a) = 300
8a + 240 - 6a = 300
2a = 60
a = 30
b = 40-a = 10
30 minutes on machine A and 10 minutes on machine B
