Let [t] denote the greatest integer ≤ t and aZ = {ax : x ∈ Z, a ∈ R} (where Z is set of integer and R is set of real number). The set of points of discontinuity of the function f(x) = [2x] is given by

  1. A Z
  2. B 2Z
  3. C \(\frac{1}{2}\) Z
  4. D R - Z
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{1}{2}\) Z

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The greatest integer function \( [y] \) is discontinuous when \( y \) is an integer. \( f(x) = [2x] \) is discontinuous when \( 2x \in Z \). Let \( 2x = k \), where \( k \in Z \). \( x = \frac{k}{2} \), where \( k \in Z \). The set of points of discontinuity is…
