Question
A function f(x) is defined as,
f
x
=
x
2
-
x
-
6
x
-
3
;
if
x
≠
3
5
;
if
x
=
3
Show that f(x) is continuous that x = 3.

Solution
Given:
f
x
=
x
2
-
x
-
6
x
-
3
,
x
≠
3
5
,
x
=
3
We observe
(LHL at x = 3) =
lim
x
→
3
-
f
x
=
lim
h
→
0
f

-
h
=
lim
h
→
0

h

h

h

lim
h

h

h

h

-
h
=
lim
h
→
0
h
2
-
5
h
-
h
=
lim
h
→
0
5
-
h
=
5
And, (RHL at x = 3) =
lim
x
→
3
+
f
x
=
lim
h
→
0
f
3
+
h
=
lim
h

h

h

h
-

=
lim
h
→

h
2

h
-

-
h
-
6
h
=
lim
h
→
0
h
2
+
5
h
h
=
lim
h
→
0
5
+
h
=
5
Also,
f
3
=
5
∴
lim
x
→
3
+
f
x
=
lim
x
→
3
-
f
x
=
f
3
Hence,
f
x
is continuous at
x
=
3
.
