JEE MAIN - Mathematics (2023 - 11th April Evening Shift - No. 11)

Let $$f$$ and $$g$$ be two functions defined by

$$f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{cc}x+1, & x < 0 \\ |x-1|, & x \geq 0\end{array}\right.$$ and $$\mathrm{g}(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{cc}x+1, & x < 0 \\ 1, & x \geq 0\end{array}\right.$$

Then $$(g \circ f)(x)$$ is :

continuous everywhere but not differentiable at $$x=1$$
differentiable everywhere
not continuous at $$x=-1$$
continuous everywhere but not differentiable exactly at one point

Explanation

$$ \begin{aligned} & \text { Sol. } f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{c} x+1, x<0 \\\ 1-x, 0 \leq x<1 \\ x-1,1 \leq x \end{array}\right. \\\\ & g(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{c} x+1, x<0 \\ 1, x \geq 0 \end{array}\right. \\\\ & g(f(x))=\left\{\begin{array}{c} x+2, x<-1 \\ 1, x \geq-1 \end{array}\right. \end{aligned} $$

JEE Main 2023 (Online) 11th April Evening Shift Mathematics - Limits, Continuity and Differentiability Question 49 English Explanation
$\therefore \mathrm{g}(\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x}))$ is continuous everywhere

$\mathrm{g}(\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x}))$ is not differentiable at $\mathrm{x}=-1$ Differentiable everywhere else.
