Consider the Following Function $$f ( x ) = \left\{ \begin{array} { c c } 3 - x & x < - 1 \\x & - 1 \leq x < 3 \\( x - 3 ) ^ { 2 } & x \geq 3\end{array} \right.$$

question 24

Short Answer

Consider the following function. $$f ( x ) = \left\{ \begin{array} { c c } 3 - x & x < - 1 \\x & - 1 \leq x < 3 \\( x - 3 ) ^ { 2 } & x \geq 3\end{array} \right.$$
Determine the values of $a$ for which $\lim _ { x \rightarrow a } f ( x )$ exists.
