MCQ
A function $f(x)\, = \left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{1 + x,}&{x \le 2}\\{5 - x,}&{x > 2}\end{array}} \right.\,$ is
  • A
    Not continuous at $x = 2$
  • B
    Differentiable at $x = 2$
  • Continuous but not differentiable at $x = 2$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: C.
Continuous but not differentiable at $x = 2$
c
(c) $\mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to {0^ - }} 1 + (2 - h) = 3$, 

$\mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to {0^ + }} 5 - (2 + h) = 3$, $f(2) = 3$

Hence, $f$ is continuous at $x = 2$

Now $Rf'(x) = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{{5 - (2 + h) - 3}}{h} = - 1$

$Lf'(x) = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} \frac{{1 + (2 - h) - 3}}{{ - h}} = 1$

$\because Rf'(x) \ne Lf'(x)$;  $f$ is not differentiable at $x = 2$.
