The correct option is C x0 or x4
Let f(x)=(x1|+(x2|+(x3|If x1f(x)=(x1)(x2)(x3)f(x)=x+1x+2x+3f(x)=3x+6Now, f(x)63x+66x0x0If 1x2f(x)=(x1)(x2)(x3)f(x)=x1x+2x+3f(x)=x+4Now, f(x)6x+46x2which is not possible as 1x2If 2<x3f(x)=(x1)+(x2)(x3)f(x)=x1+x2x+3f(x)=xNow, f(x)6x6which is not possible as x3If x>3f(x)=(x1)+(x2)+(x3)f(x)=x1+x2+x3f(x)=3x6Now, f(x)63x66x4x4Range of x is x0 or x4
