Types of Discontinuities
Figure (a) and (c) are called removable discontinuity because we could remove the discontinuity by redefining f at just the single number 2. Figure (b) is an infinite discontinuity. The discontinuities in figure (d) are called jump discontinuities because the function “jumps” from one value to another.
At which numbers is f discontinuous? Describe the type of discontinuity.

so . Thus by the definition of continuity, f(x) is discontinuous at a = -2
so . Thus by the definition of continuity, f(x) is discontinuous at a = 0
Discontinuous at x = 0. Continuous from the left at x = 0.
