MCQ

The function $f(x)=[x]$, where $[x]$ denotes the greatest integer less than or equal to $x$, is continuous at

A
$x=1$
B
$x=1.5$
C
$x=-2$
D
$x=4$

✓

Answer

Let $x=1.5$
$\therefore$ L.H.L. $=\operatorname{Lt}_{x \rightarrow 1.5^{-}} f(x)=\underset{h \rightarrow 0}{\operatorname{Lt}}[1.5-h]=1$
and R.H.L. $=\operatorname{Lt}_{x \rightarrow 1.5^{+}} f(x)=\underset{h \rightarrow 0}{\operatorname{Lt}}[1.5+h]=1$
$\because \quad$ L.H.L. = R.H.L.
$\therefore f(x)$ is continuous at $x=1.5$
Also, greatest integer function is discontinuous at all integral values of $x$.
