- A \(f\) is not continuous but differentiable at \(x=1\)
- B \(f\) is differentiable at \(x=1\)
- C \(f\) is discontinuous at \(x=1\)
- D \(f\) is continuous but not differentiable at \(x=1\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(f\) is continuous but not differentiable at \(x=1\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
To check continuity at \(x=1\), we evaluate the left-hand limit and right-hand limit. Left-hand limit: \(\lim_{x \to 1^{-}} f(x) = \lim_{x \to 1^{-}} x = 1\). Right-hand limit: \(\lim_{x \to 1^{+}} f(x) = \lim_{x \to 1^{+}} (2x - 1) = 2(1) - 1 = 1\). Since \(f(1) = 1\) and the…
