Answer:

Second Option: 3, -3

Explanation:

In the graph of the supplied function we observe f (x) is a piece wise function composed of two line segments and a point.


f(x) = 3 if
x <2,
f(x) = -3 if
x> 2,
f(x) = 1 if
x = 2

We must find the limit when x approaches 2 from the left


\lim_(x \to 2^-)f(x)

and we must find the limit when x approaches 2 on the right.


\lim_(x \to 2^+)f(x)

when x approaches 2 on the left then
x <2. If
x <2 then
f (x) = 3, therefore the
\lim_(x \to 2^-)f(x)=3

When x approaches 2 on the right then
x> 2. If
x> 2 then
f (x) = -3, therefore the
\lim_(x \to 2^+)f(x)=-3.
