Expert Solution
Step 1

Given the graph of a function.

The objective is to find,

(a) limx-1-f(x)=

(b) limx-1+f(x)=

(c) limx-1f(x)=

(d) f(-1)=

(e) Is f(x) continuous at x=-1?

Note:

(1) limxc-f(x) : The limit of fx as x approaches c from left side is the left-hand limit of f at c.

(2) limxc+f(x) : The limit of fx as x approaches c from right side is the right-hand limit of f at c.

(3) A hole is a point on the graph where the value of the function is not defined.
