The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the functions \( f(x) = [x] \) (the greatest integer function) and \( g(x) = \sin x \). We will evaluate the limits as \( x \) approaches 0 for \( f(g(x)) \) and \( g(f(x)) \) and check the validity of the statements provided. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Evaluate \( f(g(x)) \)**: - We have \( g(x) = \sin x \). - Thus, \( f(g(x)) = f(\sin x) = [\sin x] \). - We need to find the limit as \( x \) approaches 0: \[ \lim_{x \to 0} f(g(x)) = \lim_{x \to 0} [\sin x] \] 2. **Calculate Left-Hand Limit**: - As \( x \) approaches 0 from the left (\( x \to 0^- \)), \( \sin x \) approaches 0 but is slightly negative: \[ \sin(0^-) \approx -0.0000\ldots \] - Therefore, \( [\sin(0^-)] = [-0.0000\ldots] = -1 \). 3. **Calculate Right-Hand Limit**: - As \( x \) approaches 0 from the right (\( x \to 0^+ \)), \( \sin x \) approaches 0 but is slightly positive: \[ \sin(0^+) \approx 0.0000\ldots \] - Therefore, \( [\sin(0^+)] = [0.0000\ldots] = 0 \). 4. **Conclusion for \( f(g(x)) \)**: - The left-hand limit is -1 and the right-hand limit is 0: \[ \lim_{x \to 0^-} f(g(x)) \neq \lim_{x \to 0^+} f(g(x)) \] - Thus, \( \lim_{x \to 0} f(g(x)) \) does not exist. 5. **Evaluate \( g(f(x)) \)**: - We have \( f(x) = [x] \). - Thus, \( g(f(x)) = g([x]) = \sin([x]) \). - We need to find the limit as \( x \) approaches 0: \[ \lim_{x \to 0} g(f(x)) = \lim_{x \to 0} \sin([x]) \] 6. **Calculate Left-Hand Limit**: - As \( x \) approaches 0 from the left (\( x \to 0^- \)), \( [x] = -1 \): \[ \sin([-1]) = \sin(-1) \] 7. **Calculate Right-Hand Limit**: - As \( x \) approaches 0 from the right (\( x \to 0^+ \)), \( [x] = 0 \): \[ \sin([0]) = \sin(0) = 0 \] 8. **Conclusion for \( g(f(x)) \)**: - The left-hand limit is \( \sin(-1) \) and the right-hand limit is 0: \[ \lim_{x \to 0^-} g(f(x)) \neq \lim_{x \to 0^+} g(f(x)) \] - Thus, \( \lim_{x \to 0} g(f(x)) \) does not exist. 9. **Evaluate \( \lim_{x \to 0} f(g(x)) \) and \( g(f(x)) \)**: - Since both limits do not exist, we can check the statements provided in the question. 10. **Final Evaluation of Statements**: - **Statement A**: Limit \( x \to 0 \) of \( f(g(x)) \) exists - **False**. - **Statement B**: Limit \( x \to 0 \) of \( g(f(x)) \) exists - **False**. - **Statement C**: \( \lim_{x \to 0^-} f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) \) - **False**. - **Statement D**: \( \lim_{x \to 0^+} f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) \) - **True** (both equal to 0). ### Conclusion: The correct statement is **Option D**.
