Question

which of the following statements is true about the function

            3x-2, if x<2

r(x)=     -8      if x=-2

             5x+4 if x>2

a. f(x) is not continuos because f(-2) is not defined

b. f(x) s not continuos at x=-2 because     lim f(x)≠ f(-2)

                                                                         x->-2

c. f(x) is not continuous at x=-2 only

d. f(x) is not continuos at x=-2 because lim   f(x)      ≠  lim  f(x)   

                                                                     x->-2-           x->-2+
