Question

Describe the interval(s) on which the function is continuous. (Enter your answer using interval notation.)

f(x)=x+5/sq root x

Please find the answer because I have been trying on this one and I can't get it.

Thanks!

Answer 1

√x is not defined for x<0 and for x=0, the function value is not defined.

Otherwise the function is continuous...and the fact that your notation is equivocal does not change the answer.

You should now be able to answer the question as required.
