  c = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for the function to be continuous at b=3, the left and right limits must be the same. In short, we must have ...

  c(3) +9 = c(3²) -9

  18 = 6c . . . . . . . . add 9-3c to both sides

  3 = c . . . . . . . . . . divide by 6

Function f is continuous when c=3.
