Given that function is continuous at π‘₯=0 𝑓 is continuous at x =0 If L.H.L = R.H.L = 𝑓(0) i.e. lim┬(xβ†’0^βˆ’ ) 𝑓(π‘₯)=lim┬(xβ†’0^+ ) " " 𝑓(π‘₯)= 𝑓(0) LHL at x β†’ 0 (π‘™π‘–π‘š)┬(π‘₯β†’0^βˆ’ ) f(x) = (π‘™π‘–π‘š)┬(β„Žβ†’0) f(0 βˆ’ h) = lim┬(hβ†’0) (π‘˜(0 βˆ’β„Ž))/(|0βˆ’h|) = lim┬(hβ†’0) (π‘˜( βˆ’β„Ž))/h = -k Since L.H.L = R.H.L βˆ’π‘˜=3 π’Œ= βˆ’πŸ‘
