A) $ f(x) $ is continuous but non- differentiable at $ x=0 $

B) $ f(x) $ is differentiable at $ x=0 $

C) $ f(x) $ is not differentiable at $ x=0 $

D) None of these

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

Since the function is defined for $ x\ge 0 $, i.e., not defined for $ x<0 $. Hence, the function is neither continuous nor differentiable at $ x=0 $ .
