![Electric Current. Suppose you have two electronic devices that have different currents when x = 3. Suppose f(x) is the
function that describes the current in both devices and a is an additional tool to change the current of the first device to match
the current of the second device.
f(x) = {
Sa + 5x + 4x2 if x < 3
4x² + 5x + 3 if x 2 3
(a) Find the value of a that will make both currents equal at x = 3 or that f(x) continuous on (-0, o).
