MCQ
The function given by $y = | |x| - 1|$ is differentiable for all real numbers except the points
  • $\{0, 1, -1\}$
  • B
    $ \pm 1$
  • C
    $1$
  • D
    $-1$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$\{0, 1, -1\}$
a
$f(x)=|| x|-1|$ is non-differentiable when $|x|=0$ and when $|x|-1=\theta$ or $x=0$ and $\mathrm{x}=\pm 1.$

Alternative method:

The graph of $y=|| x|-1|$ is as follows:

It has sharp turn at $x=-1,0$ and $1$ and hence, is not differentiable at $x=-1,0,1.$
