MCQ
$\mathop {Lim}\limits_{x \to c} $ $f(x)$ does not exist when :

where $[x]$ denotes step up function $\& \{x\}$ fractional part function.

  • A
    $f(x) = [[x]] - [2x - 1], c = 3$
  • B
    $f(x) = [x] - x, c = 1$
  • C
    $f(x) = \{x\}^2 - \{-x\}^2, c = 0$
  • $(B)$ or $(C)$ both

Answer

Correct option: D.
$(B)$ or $(C)$ both
d
Option $A: f(x)=[[x]]-[2 x-1],$ at $c=3$

Let's check right hand limit at $c=3$

$x=3+h$

$\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} f(3+h)=\lim _{h \rightarrow 0}[[3+h]]-[2(3+h)-1]=4-6=-2$

Let's check Left hand limit at $c=3$

$x=3-h$

$\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} f(3-h)=\lim _{h \rightarrow 0}[[3-h]]-[2(3-h)-1]=3-5=-2$

$\lim _{x \rightarrow 3} f(x)$ does exist.

 

Option $B : f(x)=[x]-x$ at $c=1$

Let's check right hand limit at $c=1$

$x=1+h$

$\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} f(1+h)=\lim _{h \rightarrow 0}[1+h]-(1+h)=1-1=0$

Let's check Left hand limit at $c=1$

$x=1-h$

$\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} f(1-h)=\lim _{h \rightarrow 0}[1-h]-(1-h)=0-1=-1$

$\lim _{x \rightarrow 1} f(x)$ does not exist.

 

Option $C : f( x )=\left( x ^{2}\right)-(- x )^{2},$ at $c =0$

Let's check right hand limit at $c=0$ $x=0+h$

$\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} f(0+h)=\lim _{h \rightarrow 0}(h)^{2}--h^{2}=0-1=-1$

Let's check Left hand limit at $c=0$

$x=0-h$

$\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} f(0-h)=\lim _{h \rightarrow 0}(-h)^{2}-h^{2}=0-0=0$

$\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} f(x)$ does exist.

Hence, Option $B$ and $C$.
