JEE MAIN - Mathematics (2021 - 25th July Evening Shift - No. 3)

If $$f(x) = \left\{ {\matrix{ {\int\limits_0^x {\left( {5 + \left| {1 - t} \right|} \right)dt,} } & {x > 2} \cr {5x + 1,} & {x \le 2} \cr } } \right.$$, then
f(x) is not continuous at x = 2
f(x) is everywhere differentiable
f(x) is continuous but not differentiable at x = 2
f(x) is not differentiable at x = 1

Explanation

$$f(x) = \int\limits_0^1 {(5 + (1 - t))dt + \int\limits_1^x {(5 + (t - 1))dt} } $$

$$ = \left. {6 - {1 \over 2} + \left( {4t + {{{t^2}} \over 2}} \right)} \right|_1^x$$

$$ = {{11} \over 2} + 4x + {{{x^2}} \over 2} - 4 - {1 \over 2}$$

$$ = {{{x^2}} \over 2} + 4x - 1$$

$$f({2^ + }) = 2 + 8 + 1 = 11$$

$$f(2) = f({2^ - }) = 5 \times 2 + 1 = 11$$

$$\Rightarrow$$ continuous at x = 2

Clearly differentiable at x = 1

Lf' (2) = 5

Rf' (2) = 6

$$\Rightarrow$$ Not differentiable at x = 2
