Question 1118241
<br>
A couple of preliminary comments....<br>
(1) Do you really think it is any help to us to include "HINT [See Example 2.]" in your message to us?!<br>
(2) The problem as you show it is of little interest, because it is impossible to define f(a) to make f continuous at x=0:<br>
{{{f(0) = 2-2e^0/0 = 2-1/0}}} which is undefined.<br>
If you are working on a problem like this, then your knowledge of mathematics should be sufficient that you would know appropriate use of parentheses is critical.<br>
The function you are asking about is, in fact, {{{f(x) = (2-2e^x)/x}}}; not {{{f(x) = 2-2e^x/x}}}.<br>
At x=0, the function value is the indeterminate form 0/0.<br>
So use l'Hospital's rule.<br>
limit as x approaches 0 of {{{(2-2e^x)/x}}}<br>
is equal to<br>
limit as x approaches 0 of {{{-2e^x/1}}} = -2e^0 = -2<br>
A graphing calculator will confirm this answer.<br>
{{{graph(400,400,-5,5,-10,2,(2-2e^x)/x)}}}
