Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

Continuous at x = 2

$\displaystyle f(x) = \left \{ {{2x^2 \ if \ x < 2} \atop {x + k \ if \ x \geq 2}} \right.$

Step 2: Solve for k

Definition of Continuity: $\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 2^+} 2x^2 = \lim_{x \to 2^-} x + k$
Evaluate limits: $\displaystyle 2(2)^2 = 2 + k$
Evaluate exponents: $\displaystyle 2(4) = 2 + k$
Multiply: $\displaystyle 8 = 2 + k$
[Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 2 on both sides: $\displaystyle 6 = k$
Rewrite: $\displaystyle k = 6$

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ice sheets have one particularly special property. They allow us to go back in time and to sample accumulation, air temperature and air chemistry from another time[1]. Ice core records allow us to generate continuous reconstructions of past climate, going back at least 800,000 years[2].

Ice coring has been around since the 1950s. Ice cores have been drilled in ice sheets worldwide, but notably in Greenland[3] and Antarctica[4, 5]. High rates of snow accumulation provide excellent time resolution, and bubbles in the ice core preserve actual samples of the world’s ancient atmosphere[6].
