The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the function \( f(x) \) given by: \[ f(x) = \begin{cases} x + \{x\} + x \sin(\{x\}) & \text{for } x \neq 0 \\ 0 & \text{for } x = 0 \end{cases} \] where \(\{x\}\) denotes the fractional part of \(x\). ### Step 1: Check Continuity at \(x = 0\) To check the continuity of \(f(x)\) at \(x = 0\), we need to evaluate: \[ \lim_{x \to 0} f(x) \] For \(x \neq 0\): \[ f(x) = x + \{x\} + x \sin(\{x\}) \] The fractional part function \(\{x\} = x - \lfloor x \rfloor\). For \(x\) approaching \(0\), \(\{x\} = x\) when \(x\) is positive and \(\{x\} = 0\) when \(x\) is negative. Thus, we can analyze the limit: \[ \lim_{x \to 0} f(x) = \lim_{x \to 0} \left( x + \{x\} + x \sin(\{x\}) \right) \] As \(x \to 0\): - For \(x > 0\): \(\{x\} = x\), so \(f(x) = x + x + x \sin(x) = 2x + x \sin(x)\). - For \(x < 0\): \(\{x\} = 0\), so \(f(x) = x + 0 + x \sin(0) = x\). Now, we compute the limits: 1. As \(x \to 0^+\): \[ \lim_{x \to 0^+} f(x) = \lim_{x \to 0^+} (2x + x \sin(x)) = 0 \] 2. As \(x \to 0^-\): \[ \lim_{x \to 0^-} f(x) = \lim_{x \to 0^-} x = 0 \] Since both one-sided limits equal \(0\), we have: \[ \lim_{x \to 0} f(x) = 0 \] Thus, \(f(0) = 0\) and \(f(x)\) is continuous at \(x = 0\). ### Step 2: Check Differentiability at \(x = 0\) To check differentiability, we need to find the left-hand derivative (LHD) and right-hand derivative (RHD) at \(x = 0\). **Left-Hand Derivative (LHD)**: \[ \text{LHD} = \lim_{h \to 0^-} \frac{f(0 + h) - f(0)}{h} = \lim_{h \to 0^-} \frac{f(h)}{h} \] For \(h < 0\): \[ f(h) = h \quad \text{(since } \{h\} = 0\text{)} \] Thus, \[ \text{LHD} = \lim_{h \to 0^-} \frac{h}{h} = 1 \] **Right-Hand Derivative (RHD)**: \[ \text{RHD} = \lim_{h \to 0^+} \frac{f(0 + h) - f(0)}{h} = \lim_{h \to 0^+} \frac{f(h)}{h} \] For \(h > 0\): \[ f(h) = 2h + h \sin(h) \] Thus, \[ \text{RHD} = \lim_{h \to 0^+} \frac{2h + h \sin(h)}{h} = \lim_{h \to 0^+} (2 + \sin(h)) = 2 \] ### Conclusion Since the left-hand derivative (1) and the right-hand derivative (2) are not equal, \(f(x)\) is not differentiable at \(x = 0\). ### Final Answer The function \(f(x)\) is continuous at \(x = 0\) but not differentiable at \(x = 0\). Therefore, the correct option is: **Option 2: f is continuous but not differentiable at \(x = 0\)**.
