Definition 6.1.1. Given D ⊆ R, a function f : D → R and some point a ∈ D, then f is continuous at a if for all sequences (Xn) contained in D where lim Xn =
                                                            n→∞
a, we have that lim f(Xn) = f(a) (that is, the sequence f(Xn) is difined by taking
                         n→∞
for each n-th term the image of xn under f converges to the value f(a)).
A function is continuous on its domain if it is continuous at a for all a ∈ D.please use this definition to solve the problem
