Explain in your own words what the Intermediate Value Theorem says and why it seems plausible. 30. Explain why lim (3x + 8x) can be evaluated by substituting x = 2. x 2 In Exercises 31-32, (a) use a graphing calculator to tell where the rational function P(x)/Q(x) is discontinuous, and (b) verify your answer from part (a) by using the graphing calculator to plot Q(x) and determine where Q(x) = 0.
