If f(x)= x 2 -1 , then on the interval [0, ] which one of the following is correct?
Options
- A[f(x)] , where [ ] is the greatest integer function, and 1 f( x ) are both continuous.
- B[f(x)] , where [ ] is the greatest integer functin, and f⁻¹( x ) are both continuous.
- C[f(x)] , where [ ] is the greatest integer function, and 1 f( x ) are both discontinuous.
- D[f(x)] , where [ ] is the greatest integer function, is discontinuous but 1 f( x ) is continuous.
Correct answer
C. [f(x)] , where [ ] is the greatest integer function, and 1 f( x ) are both discontinuous.
Step-by-step solution
aligned & f ( x )= x 2 -1, [0, ] & f ( x )= ( x 2 -1 ) aligned 1 f(x) = 1 x 2 -1 is discontinuous at x=2 . f ( x ) is discontinuous for x =2 in [0, ]
