Applying the Definition of Continuity

Mark
< Prev
Next >

Which of the following provides an example of a function that is continuous for all real numbers?

A

The function f(x)=1x−2f(x)=\frac{1}{x-2} is not continuous at x=2x=2 because it is undefined there.

B

A piecewise function like {x−1x<2x+1x≥2\begin{cases} x-1 & x<2 \\ x+1 & x\ge2 \end{cases} has a jump discontinuity at x=2x=2 since the one-sided limits do not match.

C

The function f(x)=x2+1f(x)=x^2+1 is continuous for all xx since for every point, lim⁡x→cf(x)=f(c)\lim_{x \to c} f(x)=f(c).

D

A function defined by f(x)={sin⁡(x)x≤πcos⁡(x)x>πf(x)=\begin{cases} \sin(x) & x\leq \pi \\ \cos(x) & x>\pi \end{cases} may fail continuity at the boundary if the values do not agree.
