MCQ
If$f(x) = \left\{ \begin{array}{l}{e^{1/x}},\;{\rm{when}}\;x \ne 0\\0,\;\;\;\;\;{\rm{when}}\;x = 0\end{array} \right.$, then
  • A
    $\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0 + } f(x) = e$
  • B
    $\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0 + } f(x) = 0$
  • $f(x)$ is discontinuous at $x = 0$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: C.
$f(x)$ is discontinuous at $x = 0$
c
(c) $f(0) = 0$

$\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0 - } f(x) = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} \,{e^{ - 1/h}} = 0$

and $\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0 + } f(x) = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{h \to 0} \,{e^{1/h}} = \infty $

Hence function is discontinuous at $x = 0$.
