Functions Question 558

Question: The function $ f(x)=

[x]\cos [ \frac{2x-1}{2} ]\pi ,, $ where $ [.] $ denotes the greatest integer function, is discontinuous at [IIT 1995]

Options:

A) All x

B) No x

C) All integer points

D) x which is not an integer

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

$ f(x)=[x]\cos ,[ \frac{2x-1}{2} ],\pi $
Since $ g(x)=[x] $ is always discontinuous at all integral values of points. Hence $ f(x) $ is discontinuous for all integral points.
