Let $f : [-1,3] \to  R$ be defined as

$f\left( x \right) = \left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
  {\left| x \right| + \left[ x \right],}&{ - 1 \leq x < 1} \\ 
  {x + \left| x \right|,}&{1 \leq x < 2} \\ 
  {x + \left| x \right|,}&{2 \leq x \leq 3} 
\end{array}} \right.$ 

where $[t]$ denotes the greatest integer less than or equal to $t$. Then, $f$ is discontinuous at:

  • only two points
  • B
    only one point
  • C
    four or more points
  • D
    only three points

Answer

Correct option: A.
only two points
a
$f\left( x \right) = \left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
{ - x - 1}&{x \in \left[ { - 1,0} \right)}\\
x&{x \in \left[ {0,1} \right)}\\
{2x}&{x \in \left[ {1,2} \right)}\\
{x + 2}&{x \in \left[ {2,3} \right)}
\end{array}} \right.$

$f(x)$ is discontinuous at $x=0,1$
