Given information

Here given a function, 

 .

We have to find the value of the constant  is the function   continuous on  .

 

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.

The given function is

 .

Here,  is continuous on  and  as they are polynomial functions.

Now to check the continuity at  , we need to evaluate the left hand limit and the right hand limit.

 

  

   .

As  is continuous in , it is continuous at 2 as well. Thus,   

Therefore,

  

Thus, for  to be continuous on  ,     .
