Question
The function $f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{cc}|x-3|, & x \geq 1 \\ \frac{x^2}{4}-\frac{3 x}{2}+\frac{13}{4}, & x<1\end{array}\right.$ is

Answer

$(d) : |x-3|$ is continuous at $x=3,$ but not differentiable.
$f\left(1^{-}\right)=f\left(1^{+}\right)=f(1)=2$
$f^{\prime}\left(1^{-}\right)=f^{\prime}\left(1^{+}\right)=-1=f^{\prime}(1)$
$\therefore f(x)$ is continuous and differentiable at $x=1$.
