Question

Identify discontinuity for the following function as either a jump or a removable discontinuity on their respective domain:

f(x) `{:(= x^2 + 5x + 1"," , "for"  0 ≤ x ≤ 3),(= x^3 + x + 5"," , "for"  3 < x ≤ 6):}`

Sum

Solution

`lim_(x -> 3^-) "f"(x) = lim_(x -> 3^-) (x^2 + 5x + 1)`

= `lim_(x -> 3^-) (3)^2 + 5(3) + 1`

= 9 + 15 + 1

= 25

`lim_(x -> 3^+) "f"(x) = lim_(x -> 3^+) (x^3 + x + 5)`

= (3)3 + 3 + 5

= 35

∴ `lim_(x -> 3^-) "f"(x) ≠ lim_(x -> 3^+) "f"(x)`

∴ `lim_(x -> 3) "f"(x)` does not exist

∴ f(x) is discontinuous at x = 3

∴ f(x) has a jump discontinuity at x = 3
