MCQ
The function $f(x) = |x| + \frac{{|x|}}{x}$ is
  • A
    Continuous at the origin
  • B
    Discontinuous at the origin because $|x|$ is discontinuous there
  • Discontinuous at the origin because $\frac{{|x|}}{x}$ is discontinuous there
  • D
    Discontinuous at the origin because both $|x|$ and $\frac{{|x|}}{x}$ are discontinuous there

Answer

Correct option: C.
Discontinuous at the origin because $\frac{{|x|}}{x}$ is discontinuous there
c
(c) $|x|$ is continuous at $x = 0$ and $\frac{{|x|}}{x}$ is also discontinuous at $x = 0$

$\therefore $ $f(x) = \,|x| + \frac{{|x|}}{x}$ is discontinuous at $x = 0$.
