Chapter 5 - Continuity and Differentiability Exercise Ex. 5.1
The given function is f(x) = 5x - 3
At x = 0, f(0) = 5 × 0 - 3 = -3

The given function is f(x) = x2 - sinx + 5
It is evident that f is defined at x = ∏







The given function f is continuous at x = , if f is defined at x =
and if the value
of f at x = equals the limit of f at x =

Rolle's theorem states that there is a point c (-4, -2) such that f'(c) = 0
then there exists some c (a, b) such that f'(c) = 0
Let n be an integer such that n (5, 9).
Let n be an integer such that n (-2, 2).
Therefore, by the Mean Value Theorem, there exists c (-5, 5) such that
Mean Value Theorem states that there is a point c (1, 4) such that f'(c) = 1

where sin x > cosx


Yes.
Consider the function f(x)=|x-1|+|x-2|
Since we know that the modulus function is continuous everywhere, so there sum is also continuous
Therefore, function f is continuous everywhere
Now, let us check the differentiability of f(x) at x=1,2
At x=1
LHD =
[Take x=1-h, h>0 such that h→0 as x→1-]
Now,
RHD =
[Take x=1+h, h>0 such that h→0 as x→1+]
≠ LHD
Therefore, f is not differentiable at x=1.
At x=2
LHD =
[Take x=2-h, h>0 such that h→0 as x→2-]
Now,
RHD =
[Take x=2+h, h>0 such that h→0 as x→2+]
≠ LHD
Therefore, f is not differentiable at x=2.
Hence, f is not differentiable at exactly two points.
