Answer

No discontinuities.

Work Step by Step

$x=1$ is of interest to us, as it is the only value where $g(x)$ can have a discontinuity. Left-sided limit:$\qquad \displaystyle \lim_{x\rightarrow 0^{-}}g(x)=1-1=0$ Right-sided limit:$\qquad \displaystyle \lim_{x\rightarrow 0^{+}}g(x)=1-1=0$ They are equal $\Rightarrow$ a limit does exist at $x=1$, and it is $L=0.$ Now, the function value at $x=1$ is:$\quad g(1)=1-(1)=0.$ They are equal, so $g$ is continuous at $x=1$.
