Use piecewise model continuity - visual exam conclusion

For continuity at \(x=2\), the left branch gives -3 and the right branch starts at -5 unless \(k\) is chosen. Enter \(k\).

Worked practice: result and interpretation

Calculate the requested result first, then choose the interpretation that follows from it.
