This activity builds on your work in Preview Activity 1.7.1, using the same function \(f\) as given by the graph that is repeated in the following figure. Assume that \(f(2) = -2.5\text{.}\)
Which condition is stronger, and hence implies the other: \(f\) has a limit at \(x = a\) or \(f\) is continuous at \(x = a\text{?}\) Explain, and hence complete the following sentence: “If \(f\) at \(x = a\text{,}\) then \(f\) at \(x = a\text{,}\)” where you complete the blanks with has a limit and is continuous, using each phrase once.
