Answer: option a.

Explanation:

The
\lim_(x \to a) f(x) give us information about the behavior of the function when the variable x gets closer to the value a. In other words, it tells us to what value y gets closer when x gets closer to the value a.

In this case we are evaluating the limits when:


{x \to -3}


{x \to 0}


{x \to 2}

of the function shown in the graph.

As you can observe in the graph, when:


{x \to -3} ,
y=3


{x \to 0} ,
y=0


{x \to 2} ,
y=-2
