Question
Find the constant a such that this function g(x) is continuous on the entire number line.
Expert Solution
Step 1
Given,
Step 2
g(x) is continuous for all x < 0, as both sinx and x are continuous.
g(x) is continuous for all x > 0, as a - 3x is a linear equation which represents a straight line.
Now we check the continuity of g(x) at x = 0:
