The Extreme Value Theorem says if a function, f, is continuous on a closed interval, [a, b], then f has both a maximum and a minimum value on [a, b]. a) Give an example of a function discontinuous on a closed interval that does not have a maximum value. b) Give an example of a function continuous on an open interval that does not have a maximum value. c) Give an example of a function discontinuous on a closed interval that still does have a maximum value
