Hint:
The absolute value function | x-2 | can be defined as the piecewise function. In this question, we have to find value of
.
The correct answer is: -1
The absolute value function | x-2 | can be defined as the piecewise function.
| x-2 |= 
we should determine if the limit from the left approaches the limit from the right .
When the function is directly to the left of x = - 2 we are on the - (x + 2) portion of the piecewise function since x < - 2.
Thus, the function when x<-2 becomes
Hence the limit from the left is,
= 
= -1
From the right ,
so we just use x+2 in place | x+ 2 |
= 
= 1
The absolute value (or modulus) | x | of a real number x is the non-negative value of x without regard to its sign.
