MCQ

The point $(s),$ at which the function $f$ given by $f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{l}\frac{x}{|x|}, x<0 \\ -1, x \geq 0\end{array}\right.$ is continuous, is/are

✓
$x \in R$
B
$x=0$
C
$x \in R-\{0\}$
D
$x=-1$ and $1$

✓

Answer

Correct option: A.

$x \in R$

We have, $f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll}\frac{x}{|x|}, & x<0 \\ -1, & x \geq 0\end{array}\right.$
$\begin{array}{l} \Rightarrow f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{cc} \frac{x}{-x}=-1, & x<0 \\ -1, & x \geq 0 \end{array}\right. \\\end{array}$
$\Rightarrow f(x)=-1 \forall x \in R$
$\Rightarrow f(x)$ is continuous $\forall x \in R$ as it is a constant function.
