Question
Consider the function
if (x, y) # (0, 0)
xy
x2 +xy+y?
k
f(x, y) :
if (x, y) =
(0,0)
State, with motivation, if a value of k exists that would make the function f
continuous on R².
(NOTE: You are not to show any computation. If, in your motivation, you claim
that the function has different limits at a certain point along some paths, do
also specify the point and the equations of TWO paths along which the limits
of the function are different.)
