Define
a) Find all values of
b) Find all values of
Solution 1D-5:
a) For continuity, we want
b)
I find myself lost on the concept that is being taught here. I'm thinking about and I see an inequality with what looks like a linear function and a parabolic function with a limit on the domain of each equation. The domain of the linear equation has to be greater than or equal to one and the domain of the parabolic has to be less than one.
The solutions manual seems to imply that the linear equation should be solved for all values of a and b where x = 1. My question is what about all the other values of the domain of the linear equation greater than one? I see that part b) involves the user of f'(x) but beyond that I don't really understand yet. I am familiar with f'(x) and take it to be the slope of the tangent line. Could I get some help in understanding this question a little better?
Thanks in advance...
