Options
is continuous at x = 0
is not continuous at x = 0
is not continuous at x = 0, but can be made continuous at x = 0
none of these

Solution
is not continuous at x = 0
Given:
We have
If \[e^\frac{1}{x} = t\] , then
\[x \to 0, t \to \infty\]
Also,
\[\therefore \lim_{x \to 0} f\left( x \right) \neq f\left( 0 \right)\]
Hence,
