A function f(x) is left-continuous if f(x-) = f(x), and is right-continuous if f(x+) = f(x).
So would it be function f(x) is left continuous at X=1 when c=1?
Yes, and thus it's left continuous everywhere in that case, as the pieces are continuous themselves.
And what about right continuous?
I’m assuming right would be x=1 when c = -1?
Yeah, nice!
So, using that information, can this function be continuous for some value of c?
Yes?
Well, no, actually.
A continuous function needs to be both left and right continuous at the same time.
Ah
And as this function is left and right continuous for different values of c, it can't ever be continuous.
Nice, you're welcome!
