Ans:
f(x) = \left \{ 3-x^{2}, -1\leq x< 2 \right \}
f(x) = \left \{ 2x-4, 2\leq x\leq 4 \right \}
Continuity,
Left Hand Limit(LHL) = Right Hand Limit(RHL) = f(2)
LHL = \lim_{x\rightarrow 2^{-}}3-x^{2} = -1
RHL = \lim_{x\rightarrow 2^{+}}2x-4 = 1
LHL\neq RHL
f(x) is not continuous at x = 2
Similarly you can find Left Hand Derivetive & Right Hand Derivative
LHD=\lim_{x\rightarrow 2^{-}}\frac{f(x+2)-f(2)}{x}
RHD=\lim_{x\rightarrow 2^{+}}\frac{f(x+2)-f(2)}{x}
f(x) is not differentiable at x = 2
