Options:
  • A $f$ is continuous at $x=0$
  • B $\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} f(x)=3$
  • C $f$ has irremovable discontinuity at $x=0$
  • D $f$ has removable discontinuity at $x=0$

The correct answer is: $f$ is continuous at $x=0$
$$
\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} f(x)=\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{\left(e^{3 x}-1\right) \sin x^{0}}{x^{2}}
$$
Dividing numerator and denominator by $x^{2}$, we get
$$
\begin{array}{l}
=\lim _{x \rightarrow 0}\left(\frac{e^{3 x}-1}{3 x} \times 3\right) \frac{\sin \left(\frac{\pi x}{180}\right)^{0}}{\left(\frac{\pi x}{180}\right)^{c}} \times\left(\frac{\pi}{180}\right) \\
=\frac{\left(\frac{x^{2}}{x^{2}}\right)}{=(3)(1)\left(\frac{\pi}{180}\right)}=\frac{\pi}{60}
\end{array}
$$
Hence $f(x)$ is continuous at $x=0$.
