Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 3

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(f(x)=\left(x^2+1\right)\left|x^2-a x+2\right|+\cos |x|\) Notice that \(\cos (-x)=\cos x=\cos |x|\) which means \(\cos |x|\) is differentiable everywhere in \(x \in R\) \(\Rightarrow f(x)\) can be non differentiable where \(\left|x^2-a x+2\right|\) \(=0\)…
