  1. A \(\frac{51}{2}\)
  2. B \(\frac{21}{2}\)
  3. C \(1\)
  4. D \(0\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{21}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} & f(x)=\max \cdot\{x+|x|, x-[x]\}=\max \{x+|x|,\{x\}\} \\ & \int_{-3}^3 f(x) d x \\ & =\int_{-3}^0\{x\} d x+\int_0^3 2 x d x \\ & =\frac{3}{2}+9=\frac{21}{2}\end{aligned}\)
