Continuous f(x) over [a,b]
To determine whether a function is continuous at c or not, we
test:
lim f ( x) f (c)
x c
Example:
f ( x) 9 x 2
Show that f(x) is continuous on [-3,3]
Some rules
If we have f(x) and g(x) are continuous at c; so:
f+g f-g fg f / g (provided that g(c)0)
are continuous at c
Example:
9 x2 Show that f(x) is continuous on
f ( x) 4 [-3,3]
3x 5 x 2 1
If g(x) is continuous at c and f(x) is continuous at g(c); then:
Example:
f(b)
w f(x)
f(a)
a c b
Example
Proof that f ( x) x 5 2 x 4 6 x 3 2 x 3
has three zeros in [-4,2]

HL tangent
To find the horizontal tangent of f(x)
Put f’(x)=0 and get values of x = a1,a2,…
The HL tangents equations: y = f(a1), y=f(a2), …
