Solution

The correct option is C x except at x=0 and x=1
We have: f(x)=⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪x2xx2x=1,if x<0orx>1(x2x)(x2x)=1,if 0<x<11,if x=01,if x=1
={1, if x0 or x>11,if 0<x1
Now, limx01=1 and limx0+f(x)=limx01=1
Clearly, limx0f(x)limx0+f(x)
So, f(x) is not continuous at x=0. It can be easily seen that it is not continuous at x=1 also.
