Expert Solution
Step 1
Given function is
Step 2
We have to find the value of constant a.
From given f(x) is continuous on the entire real number line.
Here we take f(x) is continuous at x=2.
By definition of continuity at x=a we get,
Step 3
At x=2 the function f(x) is continuous
Therefore
From the given function we get left hand limit=
& right hand limit=
By substituting above limit values in definition of continuity we get,
