Which of the following function is not continuous at x = 0?A. `f(x)=(1+2x)^(1//x),xne0` `=e^(2),x=0`B. `f(x)=sinx-cosx,xne0` =-1,x=0C. `f(x)=(e^(1//x)-1)/(e^(1//x)),xne0` `=-1,x=0`D. `f(x)=(e^(5x)-e^(2x))/(sin3x),xne0` `=1,x=0`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
Option (a), Here ,f(0)=`e^(2)`
and `underset( x to 0)(lim) f(x) = underset(x to 0)(lim) (1+2x)^(1//x) = e^(2)`
`[because underset( x to 0)(lim)(1 + lambda x)^(1//x)= e^(lambda)]`
`therefore " "f(0) = underset(x to0)(lim) f(x) = e^(2)`
` rArr ` f (x) is continous at x = 0
option (b) Here, f(0) = -1
and `underset(x to 0) (lim) f(x) = underset(x t0)(lim) (sin x - cos x) = sin 0 - cos 0 = - 1`
`therefore " "f(0) = underset(x to0)(lim) f(x) =- 1`
`rArr` f(x) is continuous at x = 0 option (c),
Here, `f(0)=- 1`
and `underset( x to 0)(lim)f(x) = underset(x to 0 )(lim) (e^(1//x) -1)/(e^(1//x) +1) = underset(x to 0)(lim)(1-e^(1//x))/(1+e^(-1//x)) = 1`
`therefore f(0) ne underset(xto0)(lim) f(x) rArr f(x)` f(x) is is not continous option (d) .
Here f(0) =1
and `underset(x to 0)(lim) f(x) =underset(x to 0)(lim) (e^(5x) -e^(2x))/(sin 3x) xx (3x)/(3x)`
` = underset(x to0)(lim)(e^(5x )-e^(2x))/( 3x) xx underset(x to 0)(lim) (3x)/(sin3x)`
`(1+(5x)/(1!) +((5x)^(2))/(2!) + .....)- = underset(x to 0)(lim)((1+(2x)/(1!)+((2x)^(2))/(2!)........))/(3x)`
`(because underset(x to)(lim) (3x)/(sin x3) = 1)`
`= underset(x to 0)(lim) (((3)/(1!) +(21x^(2))/(2!)+....))/(3x) = 1`
`therefore " "f(0) = underset(x to 0)(lim) f(x) = 1`
`rArr f(x)` is continouous at x = 0
