Part 3: Use the functions below to answer questions 12-13.

−2𝑥 + 3, 𝑥<2
𝑓 (𝑥 ) = S
3𝑥 − 7, 𝑥≥2

12. Is f (x) continuous at x = 2? Justify your reasoning using the calculus

definition of continuity. If not, identify the type of discontinuity that exists.

𝑥 ) + 3𝑥 + 2, 𝑥 ≤ 0
𝑓 (𝑥 ) = X
−𝑥 + 5, 𝑥 > 0

13. Is f (x) continuous at x = 0? Justify your reasoning using the calculus

definition of continuity. If not, identify the type of discontinuity that exists.
