Certain cases require special consideration:
If the function's graph has a discontinuity that crosses the x–axis, then the
SOLVE operation returns a value adjacent to the discontinuity (see figure
a, below). In this case, f(x) may be: relatively large.
Values of f(x) may be approaching infinity at the location where the
graph changes sign (see figure b, below). This situation is called a pole.
Since the SOLVE operation determines that there is a sign change
