Consider the function :
f(x)=[x]+∣1−x∣,−1≤x≤3f(x)=[x]+|1-x|,-1 \leq x \leq 3 where [x][x] is the greatest integer function.

View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Statement 1 is true; Statement 2 is false,
Option A (Statement 1 is true; Statement 2 is false) is correct because f is discontinuous at x=0, 1, 2, and 3, but the provided piecewise function in Statement 2 is continuous at x=3.

View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
f(x)f(x) is discontinuous at x=0x=0, when a≠±1a \neq \pm 1

View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
{3π4,7π4}\left\{\frac{3 \pi}{4}, \frac{7 \pi}{4}\right\}

View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
29\frac{2}{9}
Option B (29\frac{2}{9}) is correct because, due to the continuity of f(x)f(x), lim⁡x→0f(1−cos⁡3xx2)=f(lim⁡x→01−cos⁡3xx2)=f(92)=29\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} f(\frac{1-\cos 3 x}{x^{2}}) = f(\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{1-\cos 3 x}{x^{2}}) = f(\frac{9}{2}) = \frac{2}{9}.

Correct option: D
ff is continuous at x=0x=0, but not differentiable at x=0x=0
Option D is correct because f(x)f(x) is continuous at x=0x=0 but not differentiable at x=0x=0. The limit of f(x)f(x) as xx approaches 0 exists and equals f(0)f(0), but the derivative f′(0)f'(0) does not exist.

∣y−x∣=1|y-x|=1 and f(x)=f(y)f(x)=f(y) for at least one pair xx, y∈[0,2]y \in[0,2]
Option A (∣y−x∣=1|y-x|=1 and f(x)=f(y)f(x)=f(y) for at least one pair xx, y∈[0,2]y \in[0,2]) is correct because by defining a new function g(x) and applying the Intermediate Value Theorem, it can be shown that there exists a pair x, y in [0,2] such that |y-x|=1 and f(x)=f(y).

f(x)=xf(x)=x for at least one x∈(0,1)x \in(0,1)
Option A (f(x)=xf(x)=x for at least one x∈(0,1)x \in(0,1)) is correct because by defining g(x)=f(x)−xg(x) = f(x) - x, we can show that there exists a c∈(0,1)c \in (0,1) such that g(c)=0g(c) = 0, which implies f(c)=cf(c) = c.

Correct option: B
f(x0)=g(x0)f\left(x_0\right)=g\left(x_0\right) for at least one x0∈[a,b]x_0 \in[a, b]
Option B (f(x0)=g(x0)f(x_0)=g(x_0) for at least one x0∈[a,b]x_0 \in[a, b]) is correct due to the Intermediate Value Theorem applied to the function Q(x) = g(x) - f(x).

Assertion : If a function f{f} is discontinuous at c{c}, then c{c} is called a point of discontinuity.

Reason : A function is continuous at x=c{x}={c}, if the function is defined at x=c{x}={c} and the value of the function at x=c{x}={c} equals the limit of the function at x=c{x}={c}.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Assertion is correct, reason is correct; reason is not a correct explanation for assertion

View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
a=−2,b=−3a = - 2,b = - 3
