Unique continuos linear function given a continuous function from a dense space in X to Y (Y is a Banach Space).

Let $X$ be a normed space, let $Y$ be a Banach Space, let $D\subseteq X$ be a dense linear subspace of $X$ and let $L:D\rightarrow Y$ be a continuous linear function. Then there is a unique continuous ...

Is this function continuous on $[0, 250]$? Is it differentiable?

Consider $$ I(X)=\begin{cases} 15X & 0≤X≤150\\ 22.5X-0.05X^2 & 150<X≤250 \end{cases} $$ Is $I(x)$ continuous on $[0, 250]$? Is $I(x)$ differentiable on $[0, 250]$? THANKS!!

Why is it clear from this formulation that f is continuous wherever it is holomorphic?

Hi I am new on here so not sure if this is right place to post but quick and presumably easy question: So holomorphic at a point $z_0 \in \Omega$ is defined as the limit as $h\rightarrow 0$ of ...
