The correct Answer is:
To determine where the function \( f(x) = ||x| - 1| \) is differentiable, we need to analyze the function and its behavior at critical points. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Function**: The function \( f(x) = ||x| - 1| \) involves absolute values. We need to break it down based on the definition of absolute values. 2. **Breaking Down the Function**: - For \( x \geq 1 \): \[ f(x) = |x - 1| = x - 1 \] - For \( 0 \leq x < 1 \): \[ f(x) = |1 - x| = 1 - x \] - For \( -1 < x < 0 \): \[ f(x) = |1 + x| = 1 + x \] - For \( x \leq -1 \): \[ f(x) = |-x - 1| = -x - 1 \] 3. **Identifying Critical Points**: The critical points where the expression inside the absolute values changes are at \( x = -1, 0, 1 \). We will check the differentiability at these points. 4. **Calculating Left-Hand and Right-Hand Derivatives**: - **At \( x = 1 \)**: - Left-hand derivative: \[ f'(1^-) = \frac{d}{dx}(1 - x) = -1 \] - Right-hand derivative: \[ f'(1^+) = \frac{d}{dx}(x - 1) = 1 \] - Since \( f'(1^-) \neq f'(1^+) \), \( f(x) \) is not differentiable at \( x = 1 \). - **At \( x = 0 \)**: - Left-hand derivative: \[ f'(0^-) = \frac{d}{dx}(1 + x) = 1 \] - Right-hand derivative: \[ f'(0^+) = \frac{d}{dx}(1 - x) = -1 \] - Since \( f'(0^-) \neq f'(0^+) \), \( f(x) \) is not differentiable at \( x = 0 \). - **At \( x = -1 \)**: - Left-hand derivative: \[ f'(-1^-) = \frac{d}{dx}(-x - 1) = -1 \] - Right-hand derivative: \[ f'(-1^+) = \frac{d}{dx}(1 + x) = 1 \] - Since \( f'(-1^-) \neq f'(-1^+) \), \( f(x) \) is not differentiable at \( x = -1 \). 5. **Conclusion**: The function \( f(x) = ||x| - 1| \) is not differentiable at the points \( x = -1, 0, 1 \). ### Final Answer: The function \( f(x) = ||x| - 1| \) is differentiable at all \( x \in \mathbb{R} \) except at the points \( -1, 0, 1 \).
