5. (a) f (x )  x p sin , x  0 and f (x )  0, x  0

Since at x  0 , f (x ) is a continuous function

 lim f (x )  f (0)  0  lim x p sin 1  0  p  0 .

If p  1 , then lim x p 1 sin  does not exist and at x  0 f (x ) is not differentiable.

 for 0  p  1 f(x) is a continuous function at x  0 but not differentiable.

6. (d) Here, when 1  x  1, 0  x sin x  1

 f (x )  [x sin x ]  0 for 1  x  1,
i.e., f (x ) is constant function (equal to zero) in [1, 1].
 f (x ) is differentiable in (1, 1) .

7. (d) Since | x  3 |  x  3, if x  3   x  3, if x  3
 The given function can be defined as

Now proceed to check the continuity and differentiability at x  1 .

8. (b) Given f (x ) is differentiable at x  0 . Hence, f (x ) will be continuous at x  0 .

 lim(e x  ax )  lim b(x  1)2
x 0 x 0

 e 0  a  0  b(0  1)2  b  1 ….. (i)

9. (d) Since function | x | is not differentiable at x  0

| x 2  3 x  2 | | (x  1)(x  2)|
Hence is not differentiable at x  1 and 2
Now f (x )  (x 2  1)| x 2  3 x  2 | cos(| x |) is not differentiable at x  2
For 1  x  2 , f (x )  (x 2  1)(x 2  3 x  2)  cos x
For 2  x  3 , f (x )  (x 2  1)(x 2  3 x  2)  cos x
Lf ' (x )  (x 2  1)(2 x  3)  2 x (x 2  3 x  2)  sin x
Lf ' (2)  3  sin 2
Rf ' (x )  (x 2  1)(2 x  3)  2 x (x 2  3 x  2)  sin x
Rf ' (2)  (4  1)(4  3)  0  sin 2  3  sin 2
Hence Lf ' (2)  Rf ' (2) .

10. (a) Let h(x )  x , x  (, ) ; g(x )  1 | x |, x  (, )

Here h is differentiable in (, ) but | x | is not differentiable at x  0 .
Therefore g is differentiable in (,0)  (0, ) and g(x )  0, Vx  (, ) , therefore
h(x ) x
f (x )  
g( x ) 1  | x |
It is differentiable in (,0)  (0, ) for x  0
h

f (h)  f (0) 1 | h | 1
lim  lim  lim 1
h 0 h0 h 0 h h  0 1 | h |

Therefore f is differentiable at x  0 , so f is differentiable in (, ) .

Since f (x )  1  x or 1  x are polynomial functions and f (x )  2 is a constant function.

 f (x ) is differentiable at all the points, except at

Clearly, lim f (x )  1, lim f (x )  1, lim f (x )  1

Here x = 0, f ' (0  )  0 while f ' (0  )  2
and at x = 1, f ' (1  )  2 while f ' (1  )  0
Thus, f (x ) is not differentiable at x = 0 and 1.

14. (b) Since limit of a function is a  b as x  0, therefore to be continuous at a function, its value
must be
a  b at x  0  f (0)  a  b.

15. (b) (i) When 0  x  1

f (x ) doesn't exist as [x] = 0 here.
(ii) Also lim f (x ) and lim f (x ) does not exist.
