Question
f(x)=\frac{x}{x^{2}-x}
removable discontinuities
x = 0
nonremovable discontinuities
x = 1
Step1: Factor denominator
Denominator \( x^2 - x = x(x - 1) \), so \( f(x) = \frac{x}{x(x - 1)} \).
Step2: Find discontinuities
Denominator zero when \( x(x - 1) = 0 \Rightarrow x = 0 \) or \( x = 1 \).
Step3: Check removable discontinuity
Cancel \( x \) ( \( x
eq 0 \) ), \( f(x) = \frac{1}{x - 1} \). Limit at \( x=0 \) exists (-1), so \( x=0 \) is removable.
Step4: Check nonremovable discontinuity
At \( x=1 \), simplified \( f(x) = \frac{1}{0} \), infinite discontinuity. Thus \( x=1 \) is nonremovable.
