Check the points where the constant function $f(x) = k$ is continuous. |
Continuous only at $x = k$. Continuous only at $x = 0$. Continuous at every real number. Discontinuous everywhere. |
Continuous at every real number. |
The correct answer is Option (3) → Continuous at every real number. ## The function is defined at all real numbers and by definition, its value at any real number equals $k$. Let $c$ be any real number. Then $\lim\limits_{x \to c} f(x) = \lim\limits_{x \to c} k = k$ Since $f(c) = k = \lim\limits_{x \to c} f(x)$ for any real number $c$, the function $f$ is continuous at every real number. |
