<h2>Answer:</h2>

yes

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

This is a piecewise-defined function because it is defined by two or more equations over a specified domain is. The graph of this function is shown below. So this functions is continuous because its graph is a single unbroken curve. So the function is defined be the line 3x - 2 when x = 3 and the output here is y = 7

Answer:

A. Yes, the function is continuous at x = 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function,

f(x)=\left \{{{3x-2}, x\leq 3 \atop {10-x}, x\geq 3} \right

We will now find the left side and right side limit of f(x) as x\rightarrow 3

So, we have,

Left side limit is \lim_{x \to 3^{-}} f(x).

i.e. \lim_{x \to 3^{-}} f(x)= \lim_{h \to 0} f(3-h)

i.e. \lim_{x \to 3^{-}} f(x)= \lim_{h \to 0} 3(3-h)-2

i.e. \lim_{x \to 3^{-}} f(x)= \lim_{h \to 0} 9-3h-2

i.e. \lim_{x \to 3^{-}} f(x)= \lim_{h \to 0} 7-3h

i.e. \lim_{x \to 3^{-}} f(x)= 7

Right side limit is \lim_{x \to 3^{+}} f(x).

i.e. \lim_{x \to 3^{+}} f(x)= \lim_{h \to 0} f(3+h)

i.e. \lim_{x \to 3^{+}} f(x)= \lim_{h \to 0} 10-(3+h)

i.e. \lim_{x \to 3^{+}} f(x)= \lim_{h \to 0} 10-3-h

i.e. \lim_{x \to 3^{+}} f(x)= \lim_{h \to 0} 7-h

i.e. \lim_{x \to 3^{+}} f(x)= 7

Thus, the left side limit and the right side limit are equal.

Hence, the function is continuous at x = 3.

Last week at best bargain, 75% of computers sold were laptops. If 340 computer were sold there last week, how many laptops were
Eddi Din [679]
Total number of computers sold last week from Best Bargain = 340
Percentage of laptops sold last week from Best Bargain = 75%
These are the information's that we can find given in the question. Based on these information's the answer to the question can be easily found.
Number of laptops sold from Best Bargain last week = 340 * (75/100)
                                                                                     = 340 * (3/4)
                                                                                      = 85 * 3
                                                                                       = 255
So out of the total of 340 computers sold from Best Bargain last week, 255 were laptops. I hope this is the answer you were looking for.
