In this video I go over determining where a function, that is given in the form of a limit as n approaches infinity, is continuous. I solve this by using the problem-solving strategy of taking cases, in this case where the absolute value of x is less than 1, equal to 1, and greater than 1. Using our limit laws, as well as our previous r^n series, I show that the function is continuous for all values of x except at +/- 1.

The timestamps of key parts of the video are listed below:

- Problem 2: Where is f continuous?: 0:00
- Case (i): |x| is less than 1: 0:32
- Case (ii): |x| = 1: 4:27
- Case (iii): |x| is greater than 1: 6:21
- Putting it all together: 8:42
