Homework Statement
I am given the following function, piecewise:
f(x) = (-x+b) (x<1)
3 if x=1
(-12/(x-b))-1 (x>1, x=/b)
I am asked:
1) For what value(s) of 'b' does 'f' have a removable discontinuity at 1?
2) For what value(s) of 'b' does 'f' have a (finite) jump discontinuity at 1? Write your answer in interval notation.

The Attempt at a Solution
Honestly, I have to clue where to start; especially in regards to the removable discontinuity. I tried making the functions equal each other for the jump discontinuity but, that was way out as far as I can tell.

If I could at least be given a starting point to go from, it would be appreciated. I'm not asking for the answers but, I'm so lost and just staring at this thing isn't helping. Thanks,
