Q239 / 270 · NDA 2016 (Phase 2) · Mathematics

Paragraph: Let $\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})=\left\{\begin{array}{ll}-2, & -3 \leq \mathrm{x} \leq 0 \\ \mathrm{x}-2, & 0 \lt \mathrm{x} \leq 3\end{array}\right.$ and $\mathrm{g}(\mathrm{x})=\mathrm{f}(|\mathrm{x}|)+|\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})|$
Question: What is the value of the differential coefficient of $g(x)$ at $x=-2$ ?

  • A
    $-1$
  • Correct answer
    B
    $0$
  • C
    $1$
  • D
    $2$

Solution

$\Rightarrow \mathrm{LHD} \neq \mathrm{RHD}$ Thus $g(x)$ is not differentiable at $x=2$.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
