Q.
Let .
Consider the following two statements :
(I) is discontinuous at .
(II) is continuous at .
Then,
- A
Neither (I) nor (II) is True
- B
Both (I) and (II) are True
- C
Only (II) is True
- D
Only (I) is True
Solution
As , when and when . So is defined piecewise around and .
At :
For (so , the terms vanish): .
For (so , dividing numerator and denominator by ): .
At : substitute directly . Thus is continuous at , so (I) is false.
At :
For (so ): .
For (so ): .
The two side limits differ, so is discontinuous at , making (II) false as well.
Neither (I) nor (II) is True.
