11. Example 1 Identify a Point of Continuity Check the three conditions in the continuity test. Determine whether is continuous at. Justify using the continuity test. Because, the function is defined at 1.Does exist?

12. Example 1 Identify a Point of Continuity 2.Does exist? Construct a table that shows values of f(x) approaching from the left and from the right. The pattern of outputs suggests that as the value of x gets close to from the left and from the right, f(x) gets closer to. So we estimate that.

13. Example 1 Identify a Point of Continuity 3.Does ? Because is estimated to be and we conclude that f (x) is continuous at. The graph of f (x) below supports this conclusion.

14. Example 1 Identify a Point of Continuity Answer: 1. 2. exists. 3.. f (x) is continuous at.

15. Example 1 Determine whether the function f (x) = x 2 + 2x – 3 is continuous at x = 1. Justify using the continuity test. A.continuous; f (1) B.Discontinuous; the function is undefined at x = 1 because does not exist.

16. Example 2 Identify a Point of Discontinuity A. Determine whether the function is continuous at x = 1. Justify using the continuity test. If discontinuous, identify the type of discontinuity as infinite, jump, or removable. 1.Because, is undefined, f (1) does not exist.

17. Example 2 Identify a Point of Discontinuity 2.Investigate function values close to f(1). The pattern of outputs suggests that for values of x approaching 1 from the left, f (x) becomes increasingly more negative. For values of x approaching 1 from the right, f (x) becomes increasing more positive. Therefore, does not exist.

18. Example 2 Identify a Point of Discontinuity Answer: f (x) has an infinite discontinuity at x = 1. 3.Because f (x) decreases without bound as x approaches 1 from the left and f (x) increases without bound as x approaches 1 from the right, f (x) has infinite discontinuity at x = 1. The graph of f (x) supports this conclusion.

19. Example 2 Identify a Point of Discontinuity B. Determine whether the function is continuous at x = 2. Justify using the continuity test. If discontinuous, identify the type of discontinuity as infinite, jump, or removable. 1.Because, is undefined, f (2) does not exist. Therefore f (x) is discontinuous at x = 2.

20. Example 2 Identify a Point of Discontinuity 2.Investigate function values close to f (2). The pattern of outputs suggests that f (x) approaches 0.25 as x approaches 2 from each side, so.

21. Example 2 Identify a Point of Discontinuity 3.Because exists, but f (2) is undefined, f (x) has a removable discontinuity at x = 2. The graph of f (x) supports this conclusion. Answer: f (x) is not continuous at x = 2, with a removable discontinuity.

22. Example 2 A.f (x) is continuous at x = 1. B.infinite discontinuity C.jump discontinuity D.removable discontinuity Determine whether the function is continuous at x = 1. Justify using the continuity test. If discontinuous, identify the type of discontinuity as infinite, jump, or removable.

24. Example 3 Approximate Zeros Investigate function values on the interval [  2, 2]. A. Determine between which consecutive integers the real zeros of are located on the interval [–2, 2].

25. Example 3 Approximate Zeros Answer: There are two zeros on the interval, –1 < x < 0 and 1 < x < 2. Because f (  1) is positive and f (0) is negative, by the Location Principle, f (x) has a zero between  1 and 0. The value of f (x) also changes sign for [1,2]. This indicates the existence of real zeros in each of these intervals. The graph of f (x) supports this conclusion.

27. Example 3 Answer:–2 < x < –1. Approximate Zeros Because f (  2) is negative and f (–1) is positive, by the Location Principle, f (x) has a zero between –2 and –1. This indicates the existence of real zeros on this interval. The graph of f (x) supports this conclusion.

We are asked to describe the end behavior of E (x) for small values of x when y is held constant. That is, we are asked to find.

39. Example 6 Apply End Behavior Because y is a constant value, for decreasing values of x, the fraction will become larger and larger, so. Therefore, as the x-value gets smaller and smaller, the symmetric energy approaches the value Answer:
