Let f(x)=∣3−x∣+(3+x)f(x) = |3-x| + (3+x) be a function, then which of the following statements are TRUE?

A. f(x)f(x) is continuous at x=3x=3

B. f(x)f(x) is continuous at x=−3x=-3

C. f(x)f(x) is differentiable at x=3x=3

D. f(x)f(x) is differentiable at x=−3x=-3

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

The modulus function is continuous everywhere, so ff is continuous at both x=3x=3 and x=−3x=-3.

The corner of ∣3−x∣|3-x| occurs at x=3x=3, where the left derivative is 00 and the right derivative is 22, so ff is not differentiable there.

At x=−3x=-3 the function is smooth, so it is differentiable. Hence A, B and D.
