The correct Answer is:
To solve the given problem, we need to analyze the functions \( f(x) \) and \( g(x) \) as defined in the question. ### Step 1: Understand the Functions 1. **Function \( f(x) \)**: - \( f(x) = [x] \) where \([x]\) is the greatest integer function (also known as the floor function). This function returns the largest integer less than or equal to \( x \). 2. **Function \( g(x) \)**: - \( g(x) = 0 \) when \( x \) is an integer. - \( g(x) = x^2 \) when \( x \) is not an integer. ### Step 2: Analyze \( g(x) \) - For integer values of \( x \): \( g(x) = 0 \). - For non-integer values of \( x \): \( g(x) = x^2 \). - The graph of \( g(x) \) will have points where it is \( 0 \) at every integer and will follow the curve of \( y = x^2 \) between those integers. ### Step 3: Check Continuity of \( g(x) \) - At integer points, \( g(x) \) is \( 0 \), but as we approach these points from the left or right (non-integer values), \( g(x) \) approaches the square of the integer, which is not \( 0 \). Thus, \( g(x) \) is not continuous at integer points. ### Step 4: Evaluate Limits 1. **Limit as \( x \to 1 \)**: - Left-hand limit (LHL): \( \lim_{x \to 1^-} g(x) = 1^2 = 1 \) - Right-hand limit (RHL): \( \lim_{x \to 1^+} g(x) = 1^2 = 1 \) - \( g(1) = 0 \) (since \( 1 \) is an integer). - Since LHL and RHL are equal but not equal to \( g(1) \), \( g(x) \) exists but is not continuous at \( x = 1 \). 2. **Limit as \( x \to 0 \)**: - Left-hand limit (LHL): \( \lim_{x \to 0^-} f(x) = 0 \) - Right-hand limit (RHL): \( \lim_{x \to 0^+} f(x) = 0 \) - \( f(0) = 0 \) (since \( [0] = 0 \)). - Thus, \( f(x) \) is continuous at \( x = 0 \). ### Step 5: Evaluate \( g(g(x)) \) and \( f(g(x)) \) - **For \( g(g(x)) \)**: - If \( x \) is an integer, \( g(x) = 0 \), thus \( g(g(x)) = g(0) = 0 \). - If \( x \) is not an integer, \( g(x) = x^2 \), and since \( x^2 \) is non-integer for non-integer \( x \), \( g(g(x)) = g(x^2) = (x^2)^2 = x^4 \). - Since \( g(g(x)) \) has discontinuities at integers, it is not continuous. - **For \( f(g(x)) \)**: - If \( x \) is an integer, \( g(x) = 0 \) and \( f(g(x)) = f(0) = [0] = 0 \). - If \( x \) is not an integer, \( g(x) = x^2 \), and \( f(g(x)) = f(x^2) = [x^2] \). - Since \( [x^2] \) has discontinuities at integers, \( f(g(x)) \) is also not continuous. ### Conclusion - \( g(x) \) exists but is not continuous at integers. - \( f(x) \) is continuous at \( x = 0 \) but not at \( x = 1 \). - \( g(g(x)) \) and \( f(g(x)) \) are not continuous. ### Final Answer The correct options are: - \( g(x) \) exists but is not continuous at integers. - \( f(x) \) does not exist at certain points.
