Question 179645: Find k, if g(x) is continuous:
.
g(x)={x+3, x ((equal sign with line crossing through it) 3))
........{2+ √k, x=3).

In order to make g(x) continuous the value at x=3, g(x) needs to look like (x+3) at x=3.
Since g(x) is defined as at x=3, then equate those two values and solve for k.
