Find each x-value at which f is discontinuous and for each x-value, determine whether f is continuous from the right, or from th

e left, or neither.
f(x) = x + 9 if x < 0
e^x if 0 ≤ x ≤ 1
4 − x if x > 1
x = (smaller value)
continuous from the right, or continuous from the left, or neither
x = (larger value)
continuous from the right, or continuous from the left, or neither

Using continuity concepts, the answers are given by:

  • The function is right-continuous at x = 0.
  • The function is left-continuous at x = 1.

------------------------------------

A function f(x) is continuous at x = a if:

\lim_{x \rightarrow a^{-}} f(x) = \lim_{x \rightarrow a^{+}} f(x) = f(a)

  • If \lim_{x \rightarrow a^{-}} f(x) = f(a), the function is left-continuous.
  • If \lim_{x \rightarrow a^{+}} f(x) = f(a), the function is right-continuous.
  • For the given function, the continuity is tested at the points in which the definitions are changed, x = 0 and x = 1.

------------------------------------

At x = 0.

  • Approaching from the left, it is less than 0, thus:

\lim_{x \rightarrow 0^-} f(x) = \lim_{x \rightarrow 0} x + 9 = 0 + 9 = 9

  • Approaching from the right, it is more than 0, thus:

\lim_{x \rightarrow 0^+} f(x) = \lim_{x \rightarrow 0} e^x = e^0 = 1

  • The numeric value is:

f(x) = e^0 = 1

  • Since [tex]\lim_{x \rightarrow 0^+} f(x) = f(0), the function is right-continuous at x = 0.

------------------------------------

At x = 1.

\lim_{x \rightarrow 1^-} f(x) = \lim_{x \rightarrow 1} e^x = e^1 = e

\lim_{x \rightarrow 1^+} f(x) = \lim_{x \rightarrow 1} 4 - x = 4 - x = 3

f(1) = e^1 = e

  • Since [tex]\lim_{x \rightarrow 1^-} f(x) = f(1), the function is left-continuous at x = 0.

In the year 2015 Emily was three times as old asKaitlin. By the year 2021 Kaitlin will be half asold as Emily will be. How old w
weeeeeb [17]

In 2000 Emily was 9 years old.

Given that in the year 2015 Emily was three times as old as Kaitlin while by the year 2021 Kaitlin will be half as old as Emily will be, to determine how old was Emily on the year 2000 the following calculation must be performed:

  • 2015 = E = 3K
  • 2021 = E = 2K  
  • 24 /// 8 --- 30 /// 14
  • 18 /// 6 --- 24 /// 12
  • 18/6 = 3
  • 24/12 = 2
  • 2015 = Emily was 24 years old
  • 24 - (2015 - 2000) = X
  • 24 - 15 = X
  • 9 = X

Therefore, in 2000 Emily was 9 years old.
