Let \(f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll}|x|+3 & \text { if } x \leq-3 \\ -2 x & \text { if }-3 < x < 3, \text { then which of the following is true? } \\ 6 x+2 & \text { if } x \geq 3\end{array}\right.\)

  1. A \(f(x)\) is discontinuous at both \(x=3\) and \(x=-3\)
  2. B \(f(x)\) is continuous at both \(x=3\) and \(x=-3\)
  3. C \(f(x)\) is discontinuous at \(x=-3\)
  4. D \(f(x)\) is discontinuous at \(x=3\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(f(x)\) is discontinuous at \(x=3\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

At \(x=-3\): \(f(-3) = |-3|+3 = 6\) \(\lim_{x \to -3^-} f(x) = |-3|+3 = 6\) \(\lim_{x \to -3^+} f(x) = -2(-3) = 6\) \(f(x)\) is continuous at \(x=-3\). At \(x=3\): \(f(3) = 6(3)+2 = 20\) \(\lim_{x \to 3^-} f(x) = -2(3) = -6\) \(\lim_{x \to 3^+} f(x) = 6(3)+2 = 20\)…
