MCQ
Let $f(x) = \left\{ \begin{array}{l}
\left( {3 - \sin \,\left( {1/x} \right)} \right)\,\left| x \right|,\,\,\,\,x \ne 0\\
0,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,x = 0\,\,
\end{array} \right.\,$ . Then at $x = 0 , f$ has a
  • A
    maxima
  • minima
  • C
    Neither maxima nor minima
  • D
    Point of discontinuity

Answer

Correct option: B.
minima
b
$f$ is continous at $\mathrm{x}=0$

Further $f(0+h)>f(0)$ and $f(0-h)>f(0),$ for positive $'h'.$ 

Hence $f$ has minimum value at $x=0$.
