Practice Questions

Question 1

A function has a removable discontinuity at $x=2$. What does that mean most directly?

Question 2

For $f(x)=\frac{x^2-4}{x-2}$ when $x\neq 2$, what value should be assigned to $f(2)$ to make $f$ continuous at $x=2$?

Question 3

Why is the discontinuity of $g(x)=\frac{\sin x}{x}$ at $x=0$ removable?

Question 4

Which condition must be true for a discontinuity at $x=a$ to be removable?

Question 5

Suppose $h(x)=\frac{x^2-9}{x-3}$ for $x\neq 3$. Which statement is true about $h$ at $x=3$?
