Answer

  1. Is discontinuous only at $\text{x}=\pm\frac{1}{\text{n}},\text{n }\in\text{ z}-\{0\}$ and x = 0

Solution:

Given function is

$\text{f{x}}\begin{cases}1,&|\text{x}|\geq1\\\frac{1}{\text{n}^2},&\frac{1}{\text{n}}<|\text{x}|<\frac{1}{\text{n}-1},\text{n}=2,3,...\end{cases}$

Consider,

$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow\frac{1}{\text{n}}^-}\text{f(x)}=\frac{1}{\text{n}^2}$

$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow\frac{1}{\text{n}}^+}\text{f(x)}=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow\frac{1}{\text{n}}}1=1$

Hence, fnuction is discontinuous at $\text{x}=\pm\frac{1}{\text{n}},\text{n }\in\text{ z}-\{0\}$ and x = 0
