Given,

\\f(x)=\begin{bmatrix} mx^2+n\ \ ;x<0 & \\nx+m\ \ ;x \leq0\leq 1t &\\ nx^3+m\ \ ;x>1 \end{bmatrix}

Case 1: Limit at x = 0 

The right-hand Limit or  Limit at x=0^+

\lim_{x \rightarrow 0^+} f (x) = \lim_{x \rightarrow 0^+} nx+m=n(0)+m=m

The left-hand limit or Limit at x=0^-

\lim_{x \rightarrow 0^-} f (x) = \lim_{x \rightarrow 0^-} mx^2+n=m(0)^2+n=n

Hence Limit will exist at x = 0 when m = n .

Case 2: Limit at x = 1

The right-hand Limit or  Limit at x=1^+

\lim_{x \rightarrow 1^+} f (x) = \lim_{x \rightarrow 1^+} nx^3+m=n(1)^3+m=n+m

The left-hand limit or Limit at x=1^-

\lim_{x \rightarrow 1^-} f (x) = \lim_{x \rightarrow 1^-} nx+m=n(1)+m=n+m

Hence Limit at 1 exists at all integers.
