Let f be the function defined as follows:1. If a = 2 and b = 3, is f continuous at x = 1? Justify your answer.2. Find a relationship between a and b for which f is continuous at x = 1.Hint: A relationship between a and b just means an equation in a and b.3. Find a relationship between a and b so that f is continuous at x = 2.4. Use your equations from parts (ii) and (iii) to find the values of a and b so that f is continuous at both x = 1 and also at x = 2?5. Graph the piece function using the values of a and b that you have found. You may graph by hand or use your calculator to graph and copy and paste into thedocument

1. not continuous, as the function definitions deliver different function values at x=1 when approaching this x from the left and from the right side.

2.

2 = a + b

3.

0 = 2a + b

4.

a = -2

b = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

the function is continuous at a specific point or value of x, if the f(x) = y functional value is the same coming from the left and the right side at that point.

1. that means that for x=1

3 - x = ax² + bx

so,

3 - 1 = a×1² + b×1 = a + b

2 = a + b

we have to use a=2 and b=3

2 = 2 + 3 = 5

2 is not equal 5, so the assumed equality is false, so the function is not continuous there.

2. point 1 gave us already the working relationship between a and b.

2 = a + b

only if that is true, is the function continuous at x=1.

3. now for x=2

5x - 10 = ax² + bx

5×2 - 10 = a×2² + b×2 = 4a + 2b

10 - 10 = 4a + 2b

0 = 4a + 2b

0 = 2a + b

4. to find a and b to be continuous at both locations x=1 and x=2 both expressions in a and b must apply.

so, they establish a system of 2 equations with 2 variables.

2 = a + b

0 = 2a + b

a = 2 - b

0 = 2×(2-b) + b = 4 - 2b + b = 4 - b

b = 4

therefore

a = 2 - 4 = -2

5. I cannot draw a graph here.

just use now the function

3 - x, x < 1

‐2x² +4x, 1 <= x < 2

5x - 10, x >= 2

4x and 6y

im not sure though

the 1st digit is in the 100s n its 1

step-by-step explanation:

3,589÷18 = 199.389

so the first digit of the quotient is in the 100s n its 1
