Given the graph of above, what is ?

Explanation

Examining the graph above, we need to look at three things:

  1. What is the limit of the function as approaches zero from the left?

  2. What is the limit of the function as approaches zero from the right?

  3. What is the function value as and is it the same as the result from statement one and two?

Looking at the graph we can determine that as approaches because from both the left and right sides of zero, the function is approaching infinity.
