Question:

Consider the following statements: I. The function is continuous at x = -1 II. The function is differentiable at x = 1

Consider the following statements: I. The function is continuous at x = -1 II. The function is differentiable at x = 1

Options:

  • a) I only
  • b) II only
  • c) Both I and II
  • d) Neither I nor II
  • a) I only
  • b) II only
  • c) Both I and II
  • d) Neither I nor II

correct answer : d)

Explanation:

L.H.S = lim
x
x
→ -1
2

= (-1)2 = 1
R.H .S = lim
x
x
→- +1
3 = (-1)3 = -1
\ L.H.S ¹ R.H.S
So f(x) is discontinuous at x = -1
L.H.D = 3(1) = 3
R.H .D = 2(1) = 2
\ L.H.D ¹ R.H.D
So, f(x) is not differentiable at x = 1
Hence neither I nor II is true.
