A parking garage charges $\$4$ for the first hour or any part of it, and $\$3$ for each additional hour or part of an hour. Let $C(t)$ be the charge in dollars for a stay of $t$ hours, $0 \lt t \le 4$.某停车场首小时(不足一小时按一小时计)收费 $\$4$,其后每增加一小时(不足一小时按一小时计)收费 $\$3$。设 $C(t)$ 为停留 $t$ 小时的费用(美元),$0 \lt t \le 4$。
Which statement about $C$ at $t=2$ is correct?关于 $C$ 在 $t=2$ 处,下列哪个说法正确?
(A)$C$ is continuous at $t=2$, since $C(2)=7$ and the charge is defined there.$C$ 在 $t=2$ 处连续,因为 $C(2)=7$ 且该处有定义。
(B)$\displaystyle\lim_{t\to 2}C(t)$ exists but is not equal to $C(2)$, so the discontinuity is removable.$\displaystyle\lim_{t\to 2}C(t)$ 存在但不等于 $C(2)$,故为可去不连续点。
(C)$C$ has a jump discontinuity at $t=2$, and the jump of $\$3$ is the cost of entering the third hour.$C$ 在 $t=2$ 处为跳跃不连续,跳跃量 $\$3$ 即进入第三小时的费用。
(D)$C$ has an infinite discontinuity at $t=2$.$C$ 在 $t=2$ 处为无穷不连续。
