Question

Redefine the function f(x) =[x]+[x] in such a way that it becomes continuous for x(0,2)

Open in App
Solution

Here limx1f(x)=1 but f(a)=0
Hence, f(x) has a removable discontinuity at x =1.
To remove this we define f(x) as follows
f(x)=[x]+[x],x(0,1)(1,2)=1,x=1.
Now,f(x)is continuous for x(0,2)
Missing Point Discontinuity
The discontinuity is said to be of missing point type if the limit of the function exists at point 'a'

Consider the function f(x)=x24x2, where x2
It is visible from the graph as well as the definition of the function
Isolated Point DIscontinuity
In this type of discontinuity, not only does the limit of the function
Example; Consider the function
f(x)=sgn (cos2x -2sin x +3) =sgn (2(2+sin x)(1-sinx))=0, if x=2nπ+π2
=+1,ifx2nπ+π2 has an isolated point at x =0 discontinuity as x=2nπ+π2
