Explanation:
We want to start by finding the limit as
The limit
So it would only make sense if
We want the right hand limit to equal this as well, so we need
#a - 2x = 4#
We know that
#a - 2(0) = 4#
#a = 4#
We now graph the function to ensure that it's now continuous.
The graph above is clearly continuous, therefore we are correct. Also note that only at
Hopefully this helps!
