Problem

Consider the polynomial function p(x)=3x2−7x+4p(x)=3x^{2}-7x+4. Answer the following questions. (i) Define continuity of a function at a point x=ax=a. (ii) By directly referring to your definition in part (i), explain whether p(x)p(x) is continuous at x=2x=2. (iii) Hence, state the value of lim⁡x→2p(x)\displaystyle \lim_{x\to 2} p(x).
