Solution by Steps
step 2
To determine if limx1h(x) \lim_{x \to -1} h(x) exists, we check if the one-sided limits are equal. Since limx1+h(x)=5 \lim_{x \to -1^+} h(x) = -5 and limx1h(x)=5 \lim_{x \to -1^-} h(x) = -5 , the two-sided limit limx1h(x) \lim_{x \to -1} h(x) exists and is equal to 5 -5
step 3
To determine if h h is defined at x=1 x = -1 , we observe the graph. There is a hole at x=1 x = -1 , indicating that h(1) h(-1) is not defined
step 4
To determine if h h is continuous at x=1 x = -1 , we need h(1) h(-1) to be defined and limx1h(x)=h(1) \lim_{x \to -1} h(x) = h(-1) . Since h(1) h(-1) is not defined, h h is not continuous at x=1 x = -1

A
Key Concept
Existence of Limits
Explanation
For a limit to exist at a point, the left-hand limit and right-hand limit must both exist and be equal.
