Given information
The altitude above sea level as a function of the distance due west from New York City.
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
If we plot a graph of altitude above sea level as a function of the distance due west from New York City the graph will not be a continuous graph
There will be discontinuity as the distance due west of the new york city increases.
the altitude above sea level may jump from one height to another abruptly.
Hence the function is discontinuous.
