Problems from Continuous functions

Is this function continuous f(x)=+x3?

See development and solution

Development:

Radical functions are continuous within their domain. In this case

x30 x3 D(fx)=[3,+)

Solution:

Therefore f(x) is continuous in [3,+).

Is this a continuous function f(x)=5xx21?

See development and solution

Development:

This function is continuous within its domain, because it consists of polynomial functions. And which points are not part of the domain? Those which eliminate the denominator:

x21=0 x2=1 x=±1=±1

Therefore f(x) is continuous in R{1,1}.

Solution:

The function f(x) is continuous in R{1,1}.
