Solution
The correct option is
C
twice differentiable but not thrice
f(x) =

LHL = RHL = f(0) = 0
f(x) is continuous at x = 0
Now, f ' (x) =

LHD= 0 = RHD
so f(x) is once differentiable
Again f ''(x) =

LHD = 0 = RHD
So f(x) is twice differentiable
Again f '''(x) =

f
x

f

LHD = -6 & RHD = 6
LHD

So f(x) is not thrice differentiable.
