Continuity Proof
Not what you're looking for?
Let f: R-> R be a function that satisfies f(x+y) = f(x) + f(y) for all x,y in R.
Suppose that f is continuous at some point c. Prove that f is continuous on R.
How would you go about starting this proof??
I do not understand the f(x+y) = f(x)+f(y) thing.
Does some point c make f continuous on R??

Proof:
First, f(x) is continuous at c, this means for any e>0, we can find some d>0, such that for
all x with |x-c|<d, we have |f(x)-f(c)|<e.
More over, for all x with |x-c|<d, we can assume that ...
