The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \( |x-1| + |x-2| = [x] + \{x\} + 1 \), where \([.]\) denotes the greatest integer function and \(\{.\}\) denotes the fractional part function, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Right-Hand Side The right-hand side of the equation is \([x] + \{x\} + 1\). We know that: - \([x]\) is the greatest integer less than or equal to \(x\). - \(\{x\} = x - [x]\), which is the fractional part of \(x\). Thus, we can simplify the right-hand side: \[ [x] + \{x\} = [x] + (x - [x]) = x. \] So, the equation simplifies to: \[ |x-1| + |x-2| = x + 1. \] ### Step 2: Analyze the Left-Hand Side The left-hand side \( |x-1| + |x-2| \) changes based on the value of \(x\). We will consider three cases based on the critical points \(x = 1\) and \(x = 2\). ### Case 1: \(x < 1\) In this case, both expressions inside the absolute values are negative: \[ |x-1| = -(x-1) = -x + 1, \] \[ |x-2| = -(x-2) = -x + 2. \] Thus, the equation becomes: \[ (-x + 1) + (-x + 2) = x + 1. \] This simplifies to: \[ -2x + 3 = x + 1. \] Rearranging gives: \[ -3x = -2 \implies x = \frac{2}{3}. \] Since \(\frac{2}{3} < 1\), this solution is valid. ### Case 2: \(1 \leq x < 2\) In this case, we have: \[ |x-1| = x - 1, \] \[ |x-2| = -(x-2) = -x + 2. \] Thus, the equation becomes: \[ (x - 1) + (-x + 2) = x + 1. \] This simplifies to: \[ 1 = x + 1. \] Rearranging gives: \[ 0 = x. \] However, \(0\) is not in the interval \([1, 2)\), so there are no valid solutions in this case. ### Case 3: \(x \geq 2\) In this case, both expressions inside the absolute values are positive: \[ |x-1| = x - 1, \] \[ |x-2| = x - 2. \] Thus, the equation becomes: \[ (x - 1) + (x - 2) = x + 1. \] This simplifies to: \[ 2x - 3 = x + 1. \] Rearranging gives: \[ x = 4. \] Since \(4 \geq 2\), this solution is valid. ### Step 3: Summary of Solutions From the analysis, we found: - A valid solution \(x = \frac{2}{3}\) from Case 1. - No valid solutions from Case 2. - A valid solution \(x = 4\) from Case 3. Additionally, for \(1 \leq x < 2\), the left-hand side \( |x-1| + |x-2| \) equals \(1\) for all \(x\) in that interval, meaning every \(x\) in \([1, 2)\) satisfies the equation. ### Final Count of Solutions Thus, the solutions are: 1. \(x = \frac{2}{3}\) 2. All \(x\) in the interval \([1, 2)\) (which is infinite). 3. \(x = 4\) Therefore, the total number of solutions is infinite due to the interval \([1, 2)\). ### Conclusion The number of solutions of the equation is infinite.
