Q1 FREE PREVIEW

Consider the following statements in respect of a function \(f(x)\)

I. \(f(x)\) is continuous at \(x=a\), if \(\lim _{x\to a}f(x)\) exists.

II. If \(f(x)\) is continuous at a point, then \(\frac{1}{f(x)}\) is also continuous at the point.

Which of the above statement(s) is/are correct?

a

Only I

b

Only II

c

Both I and II

d

Neither I nor II

✓ Correct answer: d)

Neither I nor II

Explanation

I. Wrong by definition.

II. It's not necessary.

For example:

\(f(x)=x\) is continuous at \(x=0\)

But \(\frac{1}{f(x)}=\frac{1}{x}\) is not continuous at \(x=0\).
