Which of the following best describes a removable discontinuity of a function ff at x=ax=a? (a) ff is defined at x=ax=a, but lim⁡x→af(x)\displaystyle \lim_{x\to a} f(x) does not exist. (b) f(a)f(a) equals lim⁡x→af(x)\displaystyle \lim_{x\to a} f(x), but ff is not differentiable at x=ax=a. (c) ff is not defined at x=ax=a, but lim⁡x→af(x)\displaystyle \lim_{x\to a} f(x) exists and is finite. (d) ff approaches ±∞\pm\infty as x→ax\to a, so the discontinuity can be removed by redefining f(a)f(a).
