Show that fis continuous on (-00, ∞). 1-xifxs1 Rx) = {1-12 In(x) if x > 1 On the interval (-00, 1), fis-Select- function; therefore fis continuous on (-00, 1). On the interval (1, 0), fis-Select--- function; therefore f is continuous on (1, 0). At x=1, lim f(x) = lim X-17 and lim f(x) = lim x-1+ so lim f(x) = x-1+ Also, (1) Thus, fis continuous at x = 1. We conclude that fis continuous on (-co, co).
