For a function to be continuous at an x-value of -3 you need to make sure two things line up:

First, we need to show that the limit from the left equals the limit from the right.

     \lim_{x \to -3^{-}} f(x) =  \lim_{x \to -3^{+}} f(x)

Second, we need to show that this limit equals the functions value.

    \lim_{x \to -3} f(x) = f(-3)

The left hand limit involves the first piece, f(x) = x^2 - 9:

    \begin{aligned} \lim_{x \to -3^{-}} f(x) &=  \lim_{x \to -3^{-}} (x^2-9)\\[0.5em]&=   (-3)^2-9\\[0.5em]&=   0\endaligned}

The right hand limit invovles the second piece, f(x) = 0:

    \begin{aligned} \lim_{x \to -3^{+}} f(x) &=  \lim_{x \to -3^{+}} (0)\\[0.5em]&=   0\endaligned}

Since the two one-sided limits do match, we can just say:

    \lim_{x \to -3} f(x)  = 0  

(no one-sided pieces needed now)

So that was step #1, to make sure the limit exists.  Next we need to make sure the limit is headed to the same place where the functions.  Since we're using x=-3, we'll use the top piece of the function because x=-3 fits with that piece ( x ≤ -3 ).

    f(-3) = (-3)^2-9 = 0

From this, we know that \lim_{x \to -3} f(x)  = f(-3), so the function is continuous at -3.  (We also know parabolas and lines are continuous in general, so we only needed to check where the two pieces came together at x = -3.)

It was legal, for the system of slavery sustained in the British colonies - and also in the Spanish and Portuguese, as in the case of Brazil - to maintain a person as a slave throughout his life. There was no time limit, children were also enslaved - daughters of slaves.

There are 3 different mathematics courses, 3 different science courses, and 5 different history courses. If a student must take
Damm [24]

Answer:

45 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

there are 3 different math courses, 3 different science courses, and 5 different history courses.

Thus;

Number ways to take math course = 3

The number of ways to take science course = 3

The number of ways to take history course = 5

Now, if a student must take one of each course, the different ways it can be done is;

possible ways = 3 x 3 x 5 = 45 ways.

Thus, number of different ways in which a student must take one of each subject is 45 ways.
