Let x be the greatest integer ≤ x . Then the number of points in the interval ( – 2 , 1 ) where the function f x = x + x - x is discontinuous, is _____.
Correct answer
0
Step-by-step solution
Given, f x = x + x - x x - x ≥ 0 ⇒ x ∈ R Now using the property of greatest integer function and simplifying the function we get, f x = 2 + x + 2 ,     - 2 < x < - 1 1 + x + 1 ,       - 1 ≤ x < 0 x ,               0 ≤ x < 1   Now plotting the diagram we get, Now from the diagram we can say that, f x is discontinuous at two points x = – 1 ,   0 .
