Solution
The correct option is
C
3
If
T
is the period of
f
(
x
)
, then
f
(
x
+
T
)
=
f
(
x
)
.
Given :
f
(
x
+
1
2
)
+
f
(
x
−
1
2
)
=
f
(
x
)
--(1)
Replacing
x
+
1
2
by
x
,
⟹
f
(
x
+
1
)
+
f
(
x
)
=
f
(
x
+
1
2
)
From (1),
f
(
x
+
1
2
)
=
f
(
x
)
−
f
(
x
−
1
2
)
Substituting,
f
(
x
+
1
)
+
f
(
x
)
=
f
(
x
)
−
f
(
x
−
1
2
)
⟹
f
(
x
+
1
)
=
−
f
(
x
−
1
2
)
--(2)
Hence
1
is not the period of
f
(
x
)
.
Replacing
x
by
x
+
1
in equation (2)
f
(
x
+
2
)
=
−
f
(
x
+
1
2
)
Hence
2
is not a period of
f
(
x
)
.
Replacing
x
by
x
+
1
2
in equation (2)
f
(
x
+
3
2
)
=
−
f
(
x
)
---(3)
Replace
x
by
x
+
3
2
in equation (3)
f
(
x
+
3
)
=
−
f
(
x
+
3
2
)
=
−
(
−
f
(
x
)
)
=
f
(
x
)
(from (3))
Hence
3
is the period of
f
(
x
)
.
