Thus, we have neighbourhood of 𝑥 = 1

We have, lim − 𝑓(𝑥) → ∞ and lim − 𝑓(𝑥) → ∞ At 𝑥 = 1, 𝑓(𝑥) is discontinuous because

So, 𝑓(𝑥) is not differentiable at 𝑥 = 1
Similarly, it can be checked that 𝑓(𝑥) is not

ALITER We have,
𝑓 (𝑥) = |𝑥 2 − 4𝑥 + 3| = |𝑥 − 1| |𝑥 − 3|
It is clear from the graph that 𝑓(𝑥) is continuous Since, |𝑥 − 1| and |𝑥 − 3| are not differentiable at

Therefore, 𝑓(𝑥) is not differentiable at 𝑥 = 1 and

finitely ∴ 𝑓 ′ (𝑥) does not exist for |𝑥| = 𝑖, 𝑖𝑒, 𝑥 = ±1
199 (a) Hence, 𝑓(𝑋) is differentiable on 𝑅 − {−1, 1}
A function 𝑓 on 𝑅 into itself is continuous at a 204 (a)

𝑥→0 ℎ→0
such that 1
RHL= lim+ 𝑓(𝑥) = lim ℎ sin ( ) = 0
|𝑓(𝑥) − 𝑓 (𝑎)| <∈ ⇒ |𝑥 − 𝑎| < 𝛿 𝑥→0 ℎ→0 ℎ

200 (a) ∴ LHL=RHL= 𝑓(0), it is continuous

𝑓(0−ℎ)−𝑓(0)
We have, LHD= lim− 𝑓 (𝑥) = lim [ ]
𝑥→0 ℎ→0 −ℎ
𝑓 (𝑥) = 𝑥 − |𝑥 − 𝑥 2 |, −1 ≤ 𝑥 ≤ 1 1

⇒ 𝑓 (𝑥) = { ℎ→0 −ℎ

2𝑥 − 𝑥 , −1 ≤ 𝑥 < 0
⇒ 𝑓 (𝑥) = { 2 ∴ 𝑓(𝑥) is continuous at 𝑥 = 0 but not

Clearly, 𝑓(𝑥) is continuous at 𝑥 = 0 differentiable at 𝑥 = 0
Also, 205 (b)
lim + 𝑓(𝑥) = lim 2𝑥 − 𝑥 2 = −2 − 1 = −3 Since, |𝑥 − 1| is not differentiable at 𝑥 = 1
𝑥→−1 𝑥→−1 So, 𝑓(𝑥) = |𝑥 − 1|𝑒 𝑥 is not differentiable at 𝑥 = 1
= 𝑓(−1) Hence, the required set is 𝑅 − {1}
and, 206 (d)
lim 𝑓(𝑥) = lim− 𝑥 2 = 1 = 𝑓 (1) We have,
𝑥→1− 𝑥→1
So, 𝑓(𝑥) is right continuous at 𝑥 = −1 and left 𝑓(𝑥 + ℎ ) − 𝑓(𝑥)
𝑓 ′ (𝑥) = lim
continuous at 𝑥 = 1 ℎ→0 ℎ
Hence, 𝑓(𝑥) is continuous on [−1, 1] 𝑓 ( 𝑥 ) 𝑓(ℎ) − 𝑓(𝑥)
⇒ 𝑓 ′ (𝑥) = lim [∵ 𝑓 (𝑥 + 𝑦)
201 (b) ℎ→0 ℎ
Since | sin 𝑥 | and |𝑒 |𝑥| are not differentiable at 𝑥 = = 𝑓 (𝑥)𝑓 (𝑦)]
𝑓 (ℎ ) − 1
0. Therefore, for 𝑓(𝑥) to be differentiable at 𝑥 = 0, ⇒ 𝑓 ′ (𝑥) = 𝑓(𝑥) lim
we must have 𝑎 = 0, 𝑏 = 0 and 𝑐 can be any real ℎ→0 ℎ
1 + ℎ 𝑔 (ℎ )𝐺 (ℎ ) − 1
number ⇒ 𝑓 ′ (𝑥) = 𝑓(𝑥) ∙ lim

202 (a) ⇒ 𝑓 ′ (𝑥) = 𝑓(𝑥) ∙ lim 𝑔(ℎ) 𝐺(ℎ)
We have, ℎ→0

𝑓 (𝑢 + 𝜐) = 𝑓 (𝑢) + 𝑘𝑢𝜐 − 2𝜐 for all 𝑢, 𝜐 ∈ 𝑅 ⇒ 𝑓 𝑥 = 𝑓 𝑥 lim 𝐺 (ℎ ) lim 𝑔(ℎ) = 𝑎𝑏 𝑓(𝑥)
ℎ→0 ℎ→0
…(i)
Putting 𝑢 = 𝜐 = 1, we get
𝑓 (2) = 𝑓(1) + 𝑘 − 2 ⇒ 8 = 2 + 𝑘 − 2 ⇒ 𝑘 = 8
